Ryan Porteous hopes to sign off at Hibs with a fairytale ending by dumping Hearts out of the Scottish Cup as he opened up on getting out of the Scottish football 'fishbowl'
The Easter Road stopper looks set to depart the club before the end of the window as they look to bank some money for the defender who is out of contract in the summer. The Scotland international made it clear he would not be extending his current terms and keeping him until the end of the season would result in a free transfer elsewhere.
Porteous has not let talk about his future cross his mind as he continues to turn out for boss Lee Johnson despite all the speculation. He could play his last game in the derby with the Jambos on Sunday - and sees it as the perfect send-off should they come out victorious. He said: "You want to be the best you can be and if that was in Scotland I would choose it. But for me I think it isn’t. I think I can go elsewhere. You see a lot of players that have gone down south, John McGinn and Scott McKenna in recent years, and others who have gone abroad, Lewis Ferguson, Aaron Hickey, Jack Hendry.
