News coming out of Scotland is that striker Simon Murray has agreed £150 000 (about R2.6 million) move to Bidvest Wits.
Simon Murray
According to the Scottish Sun, the former Dundee United striker has agreed to terms on a move to Johannesburg after just a year at Easter Road.
Murray got his Easter Road career off to a stunning start, scoring 14 goals before Christmas. But he was sent out on loan to Dundee in January after falling out of favour under Neil Lennon.
The 26-year-old, however, returned for preseason training determined to fight for his place, but with Hibs accepting an offer from Wits, it would appear he has realised there is no long-term future for him at the club.
Murray was the subject of a failed bid from Turkish club Elazigspor during the January transfer window.
