Former Hibs’ defender Jordon Forster has signed a two year deal with Dundee with an option of a further year.

Forster progressed through the Hibs youth ranks and went on play 79 times for the Easter Road club.

His appearances were split across time in the top two divisions, including 23 appearances in 2016/17, the season Hibs won the SPFL Championship.

His first team chances were limited due to Hibs strong defence of Paul Hanlon, Darren McGregor, Efe Ambrose and the emergence of Ryan Porteous.

He moved down south to join Cheltenham Town in 2017 and was a regular with the League Two side last season, playing 35 times.

Forster will wear number 5 this season and will join James McPake’s squad as they head to Spain for a pre-season training camp next week.
