Millwall January transfer target admits Hibs career could be over this summer

Kevin Nisbet, a major target for Millwall in the January transfer window, has admitted that tonight’s fixture against Celtic could be his final home match as a Hibernian player.

The 26-year-old striker has scored 10 goals since returning from an ACL injury in mid-December.

Nisbet only has one year left to run on his contract with the Scottish top flight club.

Hibs face Celtic at Easter Road this evening before wrapping up their campaign at Hearts.

Asked if the match tonight could be his final home one as a Hibernian player, Nisbet told Scottish media: “It could, yeah. But for me it’s just about focusing on the game and then focusing on the Hearts game.

“All the other stuff is put to the side until after the season and then we’ll take it from there. For me, it’s just about putting a good performance on against Celtic and trying to get three points.

“I’m not really too sure [how the summer pans out]. I’ve not really thought into it. My agent and the club are in good dialogue with each other and I’ve said I kind of want to stay out of it. I just want to focus on finishing the season well.”

Asked if he would want Hibs to receive a decent fee for his services, Nisbet replied: “Of course I do. This is my third season here and I’ve got a good connection with the club. They’ve been great to me so if I can return the investment, that would be great for all parties.”
