Stephane Omeonga thanks Hibs fans following departure

Stéphane Oméonga has thanked Hibs fans after his second loan spell at the club came to an end.

The Belgian midfielder made 10 appearances after rejoining from Serie A side Genoa in January, scoring once.

He had previously made 17 appearances for the Easter Road side during the 2018/19 season.

In a tweet this morning, the 23-year-old said: "As the season is over, my loan came to an end. Just wanted to thank you all for welcoming me back in such a beautiful way!

"I wish you all the best for the future. No matter what happens, I’ll be cheering you guys."

Oméonga joins Greg Docherty, Jason Naismith and Marc McNulty in leaving the club following the end of their loan spells. In a statement on their website, Hibs thanked them for their contributions and said: "All four have added something different to the group and were very popular members of the dressing room in their own way.

“Greg is a model professional, with maturity beyond his years. Jason has shown unbelievable resilience and, even after suffering his injury, was an important presence around the training ground and Easter Road on matchdays.

“Marc and Stephane, of course, already had that strong relationship with the supporters from their initial loan spells and it was a pleasure to work with them again."
