Adam Eckersley says he won’t sign for Hibs
Rumours of the move began after Eckersley’s former Hearts teammate James Keatings made the switch across Edinburgh.
There was even a report in a national paper today stating Hibs were one of a few Scottish clubs to have offered Eckersley a deal.

Eckersley signed for Hearts in August last year to provide depth at the left-back position. He would go on to play 27 times for the Gorgie Road club after first-choice left-back Kevin McHattie saw most of his season wiped out through injury.
Eckersley built up a good rapport with the fans who appreciated his energy and work rate.
He was told his one-year deal wouldn’t be getting renewed shortly after the club wrapped up the Scottish Championship title.
