Hibs have announced a five-year partnership with League One club FC Edinburgh that will see Jack Brydon head to the third tier on loan.
The 18-year-old defender spent pre-season with Lee Johnson's senior Hibees side but will return to Meadowbank after a previous six-month loan stint with Alan Maybury's men. The partnership will bring the two clubs closer together and see a collaboration on matters including youth player development, community work, and more.
This partnership will also see Hibernian Women have a new home at Meadowbank for their SWPL 1 fixtures while an annual friendly will also be organised. Hibs chief executive Ben Kensell: “We’re delighted to have agreed this partnership with FC Edinburgh. It brings together two clubs that are in the heart of the community and will help both achieve success both on and off the pitch. Firstly, I am thrilled that we’ve been able to bring Hibernian women back home to Edinburgh, exactly where they belong.
