Hibs and Hearts fan can’t get their heads around Faycal Rherras signing on at Easter Road today.
The Moroccan full-back is a signing out of nowhere, but he is well known in Edinburgh after his 23-game spell for Hearts last season.
The fact that he was eventually released by the Jambos at the end of the season suggests he wasn’t very good during his time there.
But you only have to see the reaction from both Hibs and Hearts fans to see why Neil Lennon adding Rherras to his squad is as bizarre a signing as you’ll see this January:

Suppose we needed full back cover. But the Rherras signing is still a weird one. Came out of nowhere. Hopefully does well though!

Hearts Sign Naismith, Release Grezlak and Hibs sign Rherras. I’m no actually sure what 1 of they deals is the best bit of business for Hearts… Anyone for a Carlsberg? ?????

We sign Naismith you sign faycal rherras ??
— Michael Park (@michaelpark91) January 20, 2018
Fair to say it’s a signing absolutely nobody expected from the Hibees.
He should provide cover at both full back positions, with Steven Whittaker and David Gray suffering injuries which make the right back position a problem for Lennon.
And he could make his debut against his old club tomorrow when the sides meeting in the Scottish Cup.
