Hibs have been linked with a move for Uruguayan defender Joaquin Sosa. And reports in the defender's homeland have even claimed a deal has already been agreed to take the 20-year-old to Easter Road.
Sosa, contracted to Primera Division side Nacional, has been on loan at Liverpool Montevideo. But Uruguayan media indicate he could find himself on his way to Edinburgh as Lee Johnson 's latest recruit. The Hibs boss has readily admitted he's keen to add further defensive options despite already adding Kyle McClelland and Rocky Bushiri to his ranks this summer. Sosa, primarily a centre-back, can also operate at left-back and in midfield.
The Uruguay youth international has been capped up to U-17 level by his country. He has made only a single senior for Nacional thus far and also spent time on loan with Rentistas, where he made 30 appearances. He has since played 17 times for Liverpool Montevideo in his current loan spell, registering one assist for the top-flight side.
