Hibernian have signed midfielder Dylan McGeouch from Celtic on three-year contract for an undisclosed fee.
McGeouch, 22, returns to Easter Road on a permanent deal after impressing last season during a loan spell which saw him make 26 appearances and scored three goals.
The former Scotland U21 international McGeouch is looking forward to working again under Hib boss Alan Stubbs.
"I'm really pleased to join Hibs permanently and picking up from where I left off last season," MGeouch told Hibernianfc.co.uk.
"I really enjoyed playing for the club and working with Alan Stubbs, so when the opportunity came up to come back to Hibs it was the right choice for me.
"At this stage in my career, I need to be playing games on a regular basis and I felt I really benefited from that experience last season.
"Now I'm looking to kick on and help the team to challenge for promotion."
Head coach Alan Stubbs says he is thrilled about securing the services of McGeouch on a permanent basis.
"I'm absolutely delighted that we've managed to sign Dylan - his return will add real quality to the squad.
"He was one of our stand-out performers last season and he is a player that I've wanted to sign on a permanent basis from the very first day he joined on loan.
"So the fact that we're now in a position to make that move a reality is fantastic news for everybody connected to the club."
