Hibernian Training Centre.

Speaking before the international break Hibs manager Marink Reedijk gave updates on the injuries within the squad.
He made it very clear that they do not know yet Lowe’s return date due to the type of injury,
“Nathan has a stress fracture. And it takes week by week. We have to evaluate and make sure that he doesn’t come in too soon.
“This will take some extra weeks as well. So Nathan is not after the international break directly.”
However, great news for Hibs fans as Jordan Obita and Jacob Devaney will both be back in training during the international break.
Jacob Devaney is a teenager currently on loan from Manchester United and has only featured in the first game of the Reedijk era, against Dundee United.
He came on as a sub but got sent off after 7 minutes. If that wasn’t bad enough, the injury he is returning from this week is due to that challenge.
Due to this, Reedijk hasn’t been able to see much of Devaney at all, so when asked about the expectations Reedijk has of him, he said,
“This is the difficulty for me because I’ve seen Jacob for two training sessions and five minutes on the pitch in Dundee. And after that, I haven’t seen him and worked with him.
“So the only thing I can see is videos. But I never want to judge a player on videos only. I want to have worked with them, have a feeling with them on the pitch, off the pitch.
“Off the pitch, I have an idea of who he is as a person. But now I also want to see how he brings this to the pitch. And this I cannot judge on yet.”
I fully expect these two returning players to be a part of the high mood in camp following the recent results, as Reedijk ensures that everyone in the club is seen.
“We have lunch together, so then you see the guys. Sometimes if they come in and they walk past my office, I call them in. Like you guys know, I have the best coffee in the building. So then we’re going to drink a coffee. Most often they don’t like coffee, which is a shame.
“But then we speak about how things go. Have they seen the match? What do they think? How are they feeling? What are they in the process? Etc. I try to get, every week, a little chat with everyone.”
Marink Reedijk seems to be creating a huge team ethos within the squad, an attribute he is renowned for.
With Obita and Devaney returning it will bring some experience as well as youth into the squad, which should help push Hibs further on.
