Hibs youngster Connor Young is set to join Rangers after the clubs agreed a five-figure fee for his services, according to reports.
The teenage striker hit the goal trail for the Hibees' under-18 side last term, scoring 25 times as they clinched European football for this term. League title glory was claimed on points-per-game basis and they also reached the semi-finals of the Scottish Youth Cup with Young's goals and assists playing a big part in that.
Ethan Laidlaw and Josh O’Connor are also in the forward department at Hibs and are viewed as more likely to hit Lee Johnson's senior squad. The Edinburgh Evening News reports that they 'didn’t want to prevent Young from moving on' and as such Rangers is his likely club this season. They are reported to have 'forked out' for his services and will pay Hibs five figures to take him into their Auchenhowie youth system.
