Josh Campbell signs new Hibs contract as Lee Johnson sets midfielder ambitious international target

Josh Campbell has penned a new deal keeping him at Hibs until 2027.

And manager Lee Johnson wants to see him kick on and break into the Scotland set-up. Campbell has been in stunning form this season with eight goals and five assists, scoring a barnstorming hat-trick against Aberdeen. And the 22-year-old has committed his long-term future as he bids to help Hibs keep climbing the Premiership table.

Manager Lee Johnson commented: “We’re delighted to agree this new deal with Josh as he’s not only vital for us now but will be in the future too. Josh is an excellent player; he’s industrious, fit as anything, brave, trustworthy, and he will do anything to help his football club.

“He’s a really good trainer and a great lad who is always looking at ways he can improve. Josh is the type of player that the other young lads in the Academy should be looking up to.

"He’s a great example for them. He, and the coaching staff, are looking to continue adding value to his all-round game, and Josh should have an eye on senior international caps.”
