Hibernian have signed defender Jack Iredale on a two-year deal from English League One side Bolton Wanderers.
The 28-year-old former Greenock Morton and Queen’s Park centre-half has made over 250 career appearances and was an under-17 international with Australia.
David Gray says he adds “extra flexibility and competiton” in the backline.
“Jack is an experienced centre-half and knows the Scottish game well from his time at Greenock Morton and Queen’s Park,” the head coach told the club’s website.
“We’ve wanted to add a left-footed defender to the first team squad this window, and he adds extra flexibility and competition for places being comfortable at both centre-half and left-back.
“It’s great to be able to welcome Jack to Hibs and we look forward to working with him.”
