Hibs have cooled their interest in Swindon Town midfielder Jonny Wiliams after failing with a five-figure bid.
Lee Johnson wanted the 29-year-old to bolster his options in the engine room. But efforts to sign the Wales international have fallen short of Swindon's valuation - while also being hampered by Jody Morris’ appointment as Robins manager this morning.
Williams, who has made 25 appearances this season but is out of contract in the summer, remains an integral figure at the County Ground with Swindon currently sitting in the League Two play-off spots. Morris was appointed to his first managerial position this morning, replacing Scott Lindsay who moved on to Crawley Town earlier this month, and is keen to hold onto one of the most experienced members of his squad.
