Hibs star Aiden McGeady reveals moment he thought his career was over as he opens up on injury hell

Aiden McGeady got to a point this season where he thought of 'packing it all in' after suffering a devastating injury at Hibs.

The former Celtic star was a key signing of Lee Johnson's in the summer but fell at the first hurdle after a recurrence of a previous knee ligament injury came back with a vengeance before the domestic season even began at Easter Road. It meant the 36-year-old spent half a year on the Hibs sidelines before returning last weekend against Motherwell in fine form.

McGeady believes the injury could have ended his career entirely but admits he is determined to prove to the Hibs fans that he is not back in the capital for a final payday. The attacker came out swinging in defence of his transfer to Leith and insists he will do everything he can to get Johnson's men back on track.
