The new Easter Road boss is set to get bumper support going into the new campaign.
Hibs have appointed David Gray and added £1million on to his playing budget to help the club legend deliver success.
Gray - who scored Hibs Scottish Cup winner back in 2016 – took the job after being assured there would be money to strengthen his squad, as the budget under previous boss Nick Montgomery had been eaten up by returning loan players. Hibs have agreed to put a significant figure towards the first-team to allow Gray to make the changes that will get the club back to being a major force in Scottish football again.
"It is a massive club with a phenomenal fanbase, that I know very well – so to be given this opportunity is a true honour. From being here as a player and a coach for over 10 years, I know what a successful Hibs team looks like and I am determined to succeed and take our club forward.”
