Dylan Levitt wants Hibs to banish European ghosts after dismal Dundee United outing last season

New Hibs signing Dylan Levitt has vowed to banish the demons of his appalling Europa Conference League exit last season after falling short with former club Dundee United.

The Welsh international was relegated with the Tangerines last season, but even that was not the biggest ignominy of their season. Having qualified for Europe the season prior, the Tayside club faced AZ Alkmaar in the qualifying rounds; and whilst they won 1-0 at Tannadice in a big upset, a shambolic 7-0 defeat in the Netherlands consigned them to a solo domestic season - practically catapulting them into the abyss for a relegation campaign.

But Hibs have been quick to snap him up from their SPFL rivals; joining Lee Johnson's men for a six-figure fee, the former Manchester United midfielder should play a key part at Easter Road. And with Hibs finishing fifth and ultimately securing European qualification for later this month, it marks a second bite at the cherry which Levitt is keen to take.
