David Marshall 'set' for Hibs transfer as experienced keeper on brink of Scottish football return

Scotland keeper David Marshall is on the brink of joining Hibs, according to a report.

The Easter Road side are looking for a new keeper this summer to provide experienced competition to Matt Macey.

Marshall, set to be a free agent when his short-term deal at Queen's Park Rangers expires, has been linked previously.

And now West London Sport say he is "set" to join Hibs in the summer.

They report that his initial move to QPR in January was only ever supposed to be short-term with Marshall believed to have been keen on a return to Scotland in the summer.

After being frozen out at Derby County, 37-year-old Marshall quickly established himself as Mark Warburton's No.1 keeper but an injury sustained in March ended his season prematurely.

A move to Hibs would see Marshall play for a Scottish club for the first time since leaving Celtic back in 2007.

He has 46 caps for Scotland although hasn't been named in a squad by Steve Clarke since Euro 2020.

Marshall will be hoping first-team football can help get him back into the manager's thinking with a potential World Cup return coming up if Scotland can beat Ukraine and Wales.
