Hibs look set for Sol Bamba cash windfall
The Ivory Coast internationalist left Hibs in January last year. The Easter Road hierarchy ensured they would add to the estimated £250,000 they received after inserting a sell-on clause into the former Dunfermline player’s Leicester deal. It is understood that Hibs are due a 15 per cent cut of the profit made by the Foxes on Bamba’s switch, reported to be £500,000 of the £750,000 fee confirmed by Trabzonspor.
Meanwhile, Hibs look set to be heading to Belgium for a pre-season training camp after Jupiler Pro League outfit Lierse announced they are to play them in a friendly next month.
Hibs refused to confirm details, with sources insisting Lierse had ‘jumped the gun’ in releasing details of the planned meeting, due to take place on 19 July.
