CJ Egan-Riley has reflected on his loan spell at Hibernian in the second half of the 2022/23 season, and praised the club and its fans for their warm welcome in Leith.
The former England youngster joined parent club Burnley from Manchester City last summer, but made just six first team appearances in the first half of the season. However, in January he was snapped up by Hibees boss Lee Johnson on a loan deal for the remainder of the season, and went onto impress in his 14 appearances in the second half of the campaign.
The 20-year old says the chance to play regular football has benefitted him greatly, and joyfully spoke about his experiences playing in the Edinburgh derby against Hearts and in big games with Celtic and Rangers.
