Hibernian Sign Striker Marc McNulty
The Deal
Hibernian announced via their website they had signed the striker. McNulty joins on loan for the remainder of the season and returns to Easter Road having spent time with Hibs last season.
The fans favourite returns ready to score the goals for Hibernian. The striker spent the first half of the season at Sunderland but struggled to score goals and recapture his impressive form from his spell at Hibs.
The striker returns to Scotland hoping to get some much-needed game time and impress Scotland manager Steve Clarke.
Speaking to the Hibernian website about his return, McNulty said: “I’m delighted to be back.
“Anyone who knows me knows how much I enjoyed my time at Hibs last season and how much I wanted to come back, so I’m grateful the people at the club pushed so hard to make it happen.
“It makes a difference knowing I’ll be playing for two guys who have already shown how much they want me and I’m looking forward to getting the chance to repay them.
“I also want to thank the supporters. From the day I left the first time around, I’ve had so many positive messages on social media. People probably don’t understand how much that can mean to a player.
“I’m desperate to be involved as soon as possible and help the team push on.”
Reading Confirm McNulty’s Exit
Reading have confirmed McNulty’s departure via a statement on their website.
The statement read: “Reading Football Club can announce that striker Marc McNulty has swapped a loan spell at Sunderland for a return to Hibernian on loan until the end of the season.”
“We would like to wish Marc the best of luck during his loan spell at Hibernian.”
