Hibs transfer latest as Drey Wright nears move with ex St Johnstone man having medical

Drey Wright is nearing a move to Hibs after having a medical with the Easter Road club.

The 25-year-old departed St Johnstone at the expiry of his contract last month, and has been linked with Jack Ross' side repeatedly in recent weeks.

The Perth club had offered him an extension to his deal, and were keen to keep the winger, but both parties couldn't reach an agreement.

Bristol Rovers had also been linked with a move for Wright, but Hibs seem to be in pole position now with confirmation of a deal imminent.

As reported by the Daily Record, Jack Ross was keen to add width to his squad and Wright is perfect in this regard. He'll also provide added competition for Martin Boyle.

Wright turned out 25 times for St Johnstone last season, making three assists in the process.
