Hibernian Open Talks on Steven Fletcher Return

Hibs see the free agent as a source of experience with added physical presence after a failed deadline‑day push for Lyndon Dykes.

Overview

  • Multiple Scottish outlets report discussions with the 38-year-old striker about a possible Easter Road comeback, with no deal announced.
  • The Daily Record first detailed the approach, which The Scottish Sun echoed, describing exploratory talks rather than an agreement.
  • Fletcher is a free agent after leaving Wrexham in the summer and is considering his options on continuing his career.
  • Hibs view him as an elder figure who could aid Kieron Bowie's development while offering a more physical option up front.
  • The interest follows an unsuccessful attempt to sign Lyndon Dykes, with current forward options including Bowie, Martin Boyle and Thibault Klidje.
