Former Celtic man Wilson talks to Hibs

-

FORMER Celtic defender Kelvin Wilson has held talks with Neil Lennon over a return to Scottish football with Hibs. Wilson, 31, is a free agent after quitting Rotherham following their relegation from the English Championsh­ip. Already trying to tie up deals for Anthony Stokes and Efe Ambrose, Easter Road boss Lennon now wants another of his former Celtic players to anchor a return to the SPFL Premiershi­p next season. Undecided on his future, Wilson said: ‘I’ve left Rotherham. I’m a free agent now, so we’ll see what happens. ‘I’ve spoken to Lenny, yes. But I don’t know what’s going to happen yet. ‘I’m fit and well and hopefully will have some options and be able to take it from there.’ Asked if a move to Hibs was a realistic propositio­n, the Englishman said: ‘I don’t know. We’ll have to wait and see. ‘It’s something I’d have to sit down with my wife about and discuss with my family, too. My last season at Rotherham was different. ‘It’s a good club, but when you’ve played for big clubs like Celtic and Nottingham Forest, it was a bit of a culture shock.’
