Hibs eye up Man City’s Agyepong

-

Hibernian are weighing up a move for the Ghana internatio­nalist Thomas Agyepong.

The 21-year-old Manchester City winger has spent the last two seasons on loan at Dutch side NAC Breda having previously played on loan at FC Twente.

City’s Brandon Barker spent last season at Easter Road, the young English winger making 30 appearance­s in an impressive loan spell.

Hibs head coach Neil Lennon was keen to secure a return for Barker but the 21-year-old is likely to spend the forthcomin­g season on loan in England with several clubs down south believed to be interested in the player.

Agyepong joined City in 2015 and made his internatio­nal debut for Ghana in June 2017.
