Josh Doig has bid farewell to Easter Road in an emotional Hibs goodbye.
The defender has officially made the move to Italy to join Hellas Verona in a deal worth £3million. The 20-year-old signed a contract to keep him at the Serie A side until 2026, making him the latest Scots youngster to try his luck in Italy, after Aberdeen sold Lewis Ferguson to Bologna. Verona, managed by former Crawley Town boss Gabriele Cioffi, finished ninth in Serie A last season and now the Edinburgh born player takes on the task to help the side in the upcoming season.
Doig has enjoyed 78 outings for Hibs in total signs signing from city rivals Hearts in 2019. He went on to spent the 2019/20 campaign on loan at Queens Park before returning to Easter Road to really kick off his Hibs career during the following season, making his first team debut in August 2020 during a 2-1 victory over Kilmarnock. His breakthrough season in Leith saw him named SFWA's Young Player of the Year before penning a long term deal with the club.
