Last season he made 34 appearances for League One club Wycombe before leaving for Scotland when his contract expired.

At the signing, Hibs boss Lee Johnson said, “We’re excited to bring a player of Jordan’s experience to the Football Club.”

“He gives us extra options all along the left flank and his set piece skills will add an extra dimension to the squad.

“We look forward to working with him.”
