Hibs chairman Rod Petrie has today insisted that it is very unlikely that awol forward Abdessalam Benjelloun would be back at the club.
The 23-year-old Moroccan hit man has been absent from Easter Road since his loan with Belgian side RSC Charleroi came to an end.
Benji failed to report back to the clubs East Mains training facility, and now Hibs Chief Petrie has revealed that the club is actively trying to find a new club for the player.
Petrie said:
Benjelloun currently has 18 months left on his contract at the Hibees, so the club would be looking for a fee for the player should interest arise.
United Arab Emirates club Al Shaab had shown an interest in taking the Benji on loan until the end of the season, and team him up with fellow loaned out Hibs player and Moroccan Merouane Zemmama, but the UAE side have pulled out the deal.
There was also said to be interest from Belgian giants Anderlecht and also Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kiev, but currently no bid has been received for the want away star.
