The defender was awarded a testimonial in 2017.

Hibernian defender Lewis Stevenson looks set to see out his career at Easter Road after signing a new three-year deal.

The Edinburgh club's academy product has played 424 times since coming through the ranks.

Stevenson, who won the 2016 Scottish Cup with Hibs, was rewarded with a testimonial last year after clocking up a decade's worth of service, an association that will now stretch to 2021 after signing his new contract.

The 30-year-old said: "I'm delighted to extend my deal for another couple of years. It's a great honour to be involved with this club.

"Every footballer will say that you keep learning things week in, week out. Every game there are some things where you think that you should have done it differently.

"Hopefully that will stand me in good stead. I'm always open-minded and interested in new ideas and new things involving football.

"I know I have been here a while, but hopefully I've got a bit more to give."
