Alan O'Brien has entered talks with Swindon Town after leaving Hibernian earlier this week, skysports.com understands.

The former Newcastle United youngster had his contract at Easter Road cancelled and is now on the lookout for a new club.

Having been capped five times for the senior Republic of Ireland side it is not thought the winger will be short of suitors.

O'Brien began his career at St James' Park before moving on to Scotland after making just five appearances in black and white.

He moved to Hibs in 2007 and was a regular last season before ending his spell with the SPL club in the summer.

Keen to get a new club sorted for next term, O'Brien has begun talks with Swindon boss Danny Wilson over a move to the County Ground.
