Hibs in move for former Aberdeen star Rowson

David and Mixu in battle. Team mates next week?

It has been reported that Hibs are set to make a move for Stoke City's David Rowson. The former Abedeen midfielder is not favoured by Potters boss Steve Cotterill and would jump at the chance to move back to Scotland.

Rowson 25, moved to the Brittania Stadium in July 2001, but has been unable to command a first team berth, and has only made 18 apperances for Stoke, and seven of them were as substitute. David was also loaned out to Livingston from the Dons for a month in April 2000, playing six games and scoring once.

Bobby obviously feels the need to strengthen the midfield, after in game injuries to first team regulars Freddy Arpinon, and captain John O'Neil.

On trial

Meanwhile, French defender Yannick Zambernardi has arrived at Easter Road for a week's trial, from Troyes. There is still no news if BW is planning to sign Amir Karic, after the Ipswich Town defender was in Edinburgh a couple of weeks ago.
