Hibernian have signed defender Marko Ivezic from Holstein Kiel on a three-year contract, following the sale of Warren O Hora to Leicester City. The 24-year-old Serbian international, who has capped his country once, joined Ivezic at Holstein Kiel in 2023 where they secured promotion to the Bundesliga. O Hora, 27, also signed a three-year deal at Leicester and had previously played with Ivezic at MK Dons.
O Hora made 85 appearances for Hibs and captained the team on several occasions. Head coach David Gray expressed sadness over O Hora's departure but acknowledged it as a life-changing move for the young family. Ivezic, known for his defensive skills and experience, is the eighth summer signing for Hibs.
