Hibs Appoints Garvan Stewart for Recruitment Overhaul

Hibernian FC is set to appoint Garvan Stewart, currently head of recruitment analysis at Bournemouth, to lead a significant overhaul of their player recruitment strategy as the club struggles at the bottom of the Scottish Premiership. Following a disappointing run of just one win in twelve matches, Hibs have offered a vote of confidence to head coach David Gray, emphasizing the need for improvements across all departments. Stewart's role will focus on utilizing data analysis to identify new signings, particularly as 17 players are out of contract at the end of this season. The club's hierarchy, including major shareholder Bill Foley, is actively involved in these changes after expressing dissatisfaction with past recruitment decisions. Hibs management has acknowledged the pressure to perform better and is committed to supporting Gray amid the ongoing challenges. This partnership with Stewart is part of a broader strategy to stabilize the club and enhance its competitive standing.
