Josh Mulligan Is A Hibee!

We’re delighted to announce the permanent signing of Josh Mulligan!

The 22-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a four-year deal, joining from fellow William Hill Premiership side Dundee.

The defensive midfielder, who can also operate as a right wing-back, was a stand-out player for Dundee last season, featuring in 34 of their 38 league games, setting up five goals in the process.

Mulligan came through the Dee Academy and has made over 150 senior career appearances to date, 124 of those being for him hometown club, despite being only 22. His first league goal for Dundee actually came against Hibs in May 2022 at Dens Park.

He has also been capped on 16 occasions by Scotland’s Under-21s, scoring twice.

On the signing of Josh Mulligan, Hibernian FC Head Coach David Gray said: “Josh was one of the most eye-catching young players in the Scottish Premiership last season and has a lot of the attributes and characteristics we look for in our squad.

“He’s a young player that’s eager to progress and develop, and gives us extra options with his versatility as he is comfortable as a central midfielder or at right wing-back. 

“We’re delighted to add him to the group, and look forward to working with him moving forward.”

Hibernian FC Sporting Director Malky Mackay added: “Josh is someone we’ve been aware of for some time, and he performed excellently for Dundee last season.

“The number of senior games he’s played at his age is impressive, and as a club we’re keen to add young Scottish talent to our squad to help them reach their potential.

“Josh is another good character to add to the group, and I look forward to seeing him at Easter Road Stadium.”
