Paul McGinn insists regular minutes were the key reason behind his transfer to Motherwell - although departing Hibs was a shock.
The right-back had signed a one-year extension at Easter Road but new boss Lee Johnson quickly informed him he would find game time limited. It was then the 31-year-old knew he had to be on the move, jumping at a move across Premiership clubs to Motherwell, who will contest in this year's Europa Conference League qualifiers.
Despite the circumstances, the former Partick Thistle and St Mirren defender holds no bitterness towards Hibs. McGinn told the Daily Record of his move: “The new manager at Hibs came in. We had a chat and he said I was a good player but I’d be down the pecking order. That’s his decision but at my age I don’t want to be having to fight my way into a team, I want to be playing all the time.
