He made 24 appearances across all competitions for Hibs last term, starting in eight of those outings.

The London-born ace helped the Edinburgh side qualify for the Europa League qualifying stages, where they face Midtjylland across two legs next month.
Moriah-Welsh made 40 total appearances for Hibs but is now returning to England with Mansfield, who are managed by experienced boss Nigel Clough.
He is no stranger to senior football in England, having spent the 2022-23 campaign on loan with Newport County in League Two.

The forward only joined Luton in the January transfer window after supplying Exeter with 12 goals in the first half of the 2024-25 campaign.
Alli proved he could step up and score goals in the Championship with his move to Kenilworth Road, but Luton were relegated to League One last month.
