Nectar Triantis can’t wait to get going again at Hibernian FC, especially in the number 6 role!
The 21-year-old spent six-months on loan with Hibs last season, starting out at centre-half before being moved into a defensive midfield role.
After agreeing a new loan deal for the entirety of the 2024/25 campaign, Nectar told Hibs TV how happy he was to return.
“I’m buzzing to be fair,” smiled Triantis. “It’s a familiar place for me and I feel like it’s the right move for me this season to progress and show myself.
“As soon as I found out I could go out on loan, I thought this was the most fitting move for me. I think it’ll be a really positive year for me and for the Club.
“The fans are great, the stadium is great, the club is great, I’m really happy to be back.”
Before returning, Nectar had numerous conversations with Head Coach David Gray, with the pair discussing the role the Australian could play for the rest of the season.
He gave us an insight into how influential Gray was on his return.
“I really enjoyed his honesty, in terms of where he sees me, and his vision of me as a player. It aligned with my thoughts and helped me make my decision quickly.
“Having that backing from the manager and him giving the freedom to play in that position is the best thing about it. I think I can flourish in that position this year.
“You could see towards the end of last season, I really excelled when I was playing as a 6. I think I can do that again this season.”
