Hibs have announced that midfielder Jacob MacIntyre has joined Arbroath on loan until 1 January, 2026.
The 19-year-old midfielder has joined up with the Red Lichties who currently sit third in the Scottish Championship table.
MacIntyre has been part of the Hibernian FC Academy since the age of nine, progressing through the age grades before making his senior First Team debut in March 2024.
Last season, he enjoyed a strong season in Scottish League One, playing 27 times for Kelty Hearts – scoring three times and helping Kelty to a sixth-place finish.
Over the summer, the talented youngster has been training with the Hibs First Team squad during pre-season, featuring in several friendlies, and will now continue his development at Arbroath in the Scottish Championship.
The move will see MacIntyre play and train with Arbroath, alongside continuing to train with the Hibs First Team at HTC during the week.
Hibs head coach David Gray commented: “This is a great opportunity for Jacob to go out and get more experience playing senior football at a very competitive level, whilst also continuing to train with the First Team squad here.
“Jacob is a player who impressed me in pre-season and he has thoroughly benefitted from training with the First Team squad, so I am glad we will be able to closely monitor his progress whilst he continues his development out on loan.
“He had a great season last year with Kelty and I am sure he will kick-on again in the Scottish Championship with Arbroath. We wish him the best of luck with move.”
