Kanayo Megwa has been handed a new two-year deal with Hibs as he heads out on loan until the summer.
The versatile defender - who can play both at centre-back and right-back - has penned fresh terms in the capital until 2025 and will now ply his trade in senior football at Scottish League One level with Kelty Hearts for the remainder of the campain under John Potter.
Kanayo, who joined the Hibees in 2021 has gone from strength to strength and was one of the shining lights for the Under-19s in Europe and with the Hibs Development squad. That form and promise has landed him spots in Lee Johnson's first team matchday squad on several occasions but he will now go out for a taste of first-team action. He will continue to play and train with the Dev squad as part of the deal.
