Former Hibs star Alex Gogic 'agrees' Premiership return with rival club on two-year deal

Former Hibs midfielder Alex Gogic has returned to Scottish Premiership football, according to a report.

The 28-year-old midfielder spent the second part of last season on loan at St Mirren from Easter Road but he departed both clubs following the expiry of his contract in Leith.

It was reported that a deal to take him back to the Buddies in a sensational return was close, but now the Daily Record claim the move is done. They say that the Cyprus international has put pen to paper on a two-year deal in a major boost to Stephen Robinson's ranks in Paisley. The 28-year-old - who has also starred for Hamilton Accies - had been linked to the Indian Super League with East Bengal. But he has quashed any talk of a move abroad by signing on the dotted line at the Buddies.

St Mirren have started the new league campaign with one win and two defeats from their opening three games.

Following back-to-back defeats to Motherwell and Aberdeen in the opening two matchdays, they picked up a big confidence boosting win against Ross County.

Next up for Robinson and Co is a clash with Dundee United - still hurting from their Europa Conference League exit to AZ Alkmaar and big defeat to Hearts at Tynecastle.

Gogic could then potentially face his former club with Hibs in town the following weekend.
