Josh Campbell

Josh Campbell made 27 Premiership appearances for Hibernian in 2025-26, but only four were starts. The split points to a squad role rather than a fixed midfield place, though three league goals from limited starting minutes gave Hibs some end product from the bench. Four yellow cards also fit the profile of a combative central midfielder used to manage games rather than dictate them every week.

Campbell averaged a 6.71 rating across the Premiership season, with a high of 8.13 and a low of 6.18. That range suggests a generally steady performer with the occasional standout display, rather than a midfielder who regularly dominated matches.

Campbell's career has followed a Hibernian pathway built around loan development. Spells with Airdrieonians, Arbroath and Edinburgh City preceded his return to Easter Road, where his best scoring return came with eight goals in 2022-23. Since then his league output has settled at three to four goals a season, suggesting a useful Premiership squad midfielder rather than a player on a clear upward curve.

The transfer record is almost entirely loans and returns, with no listed fees. Hibernian sent Campbell to Airdrieonians, Arbroath and Edinburgh City before bringing him back, which reads as a controlled development route rather than a series of permanent moves. The pattern was upward in level once the loans ended, but he has since remained within the Hibs squad structure.
