They say you should never go back but Hibs are right to make an exception for Martin Boyle.
Fresh reports claim the club are making a move but to be honest I don’t think rumours of a return have ever gone away. He’s a huge hero round Easter Road and there’s no doubt the fans would welcome him back with open arms. I’ve heard Ron Gordon himself say similar words to the effect already. To be fair to the owner, he hasn’t held back from investing in the club on and off the park and if he has to dig deep to get the Squirrel back from Saudi Arabia I’m sure he will.
That would be a massive boost for Hibs, especially with Aiden McGeady now out for the foreseeable future. He’s been missed badly since he made the move to Al-Faisaly in January but securing his return is just what Lee Johnson needs now. Unless he’s lost two yards of pace while he’s over there Martin will still be able to offer a lot.
