Nohan Kenneh explains Hibs 'step-up' from Leeds United stint and the big factor behind it

Nohan Kenneh says exposure to senior training every day is a big reason why his move from Leeds United to Hibs has been of benefit.

The young holding midfielder was highly-rated at the Premier League club but moved north of the border during the summer as part of Lee Johnson's Hibees revamp. He'll be keen for action this weekend away from Easter Road as a trip to Dingwall awaits to face Ross County.

Hibs go into it in high spirits following a 3-1 Premiership success over Aberdeen last time out and Kenneh has been enjoying his experience in the capital as a whole: "The boys have treated me really well since I have come in. I feel like the system suits my style and I have really enjoyed playing in the team and working under the gaffer. I have relished the step up in quality and playing regular first team football.

"That is what I came here to do. It is great to play and train with more experienced players who I learn from every day."

"My confidence is improving and there is a real competitive edge in training, nobody's place is guaranteed and that certainly helps improves the standards.

"Everyone is bringing a competitive edge to their game, and there are boys coming back from injury which gives everyone a good buzz."
