Founded in 1875, Hibernian ply their footballing trade at the Easter Road Stadium in Scotland. Home is where the heart is, they say, and for the Hibees, it's a dwelling that they've known for over a century.
The team dons the Éire green and white, symbolising their Irish roots, and brings together a squad of 27 players carrying a collective market value of approximately £17m, a fact according to Transfermarkt. This value is a benchmark currency in the world of football, and Hibs are indeed holding their ground.
The average age of the squad is a sprightly 26; a balance of youthful energy and senior experience that could ignite a spark when it hits the pitch.
In the current season, Hibernian have thus far stretched their legs in five competitions. Included in their diary is a spirited run in the prestigious Premiership, where they currently jockey for position in 5th place. An excursion in the League Cup saw them reach the quarter-finals, while in the revered Scottish Cup, they reached as far as the fourth round.
On a continental scale, Hibernian tested their mettle in the Europa League Qualifiers reaching the second round, and the Conference League Qualifiers where they delivered until the play-off round. Their perseverance, tenacity, and bullish fortitude display a commendable and noteworthy performance in any competition they indelibly mark with their presence.
