Hibs boss Terry Butcher has moved to quash rumours that he was attempting to bring Dean Shiels back to Easter Road.
The Hibees had been linked with a move for the Rangers midfielder, after he fell out of favour at Ibrox, with some reports claiming that Shiels wanted Rangers to pay out the rest of his contract so he could return to Edinburgh.
Butcher has denied this by saying:
“No. I’ve not spoken to his agent – but we wouldn’t be interested in that.
“We’re looking at other areas of the team to try to strengthen first and foremost.
“Going forward and scoring goals is something we want to improve upon. There, that narrows it down for you!”
