HIBS will not be signing Harry McKirdy, it has been reported.
The striker's proposed move from Swindon Town has fallen through.
The 25-year-old has been in talks with the Easter Road outfit and Lee Johnson hoped to tie him down before the midnight deadline.
However, a break down in talks means that both clubs have walked away from the table, Football Scotland reports.
Hibs are now facing a late scramble to get further reinforcements in the door.
McKirdy was viewed as the replacement for Christian Doidge, who joined Kilmarnock on loan yesterday.
