Hibernian defender Paul Hanlon commits to club until 2019

Hibernian defender Paul Hanlon signs a new three-year contract at Easter Road until the summer of 2019.

Hibernian defender Paul Hanlon has signed a three-year contract extension with the Easter Road club.

The 26-year-old has been with the Edinburgh outfit since 2008, making 276 appearances in that time, but his contract was due to expire at the end of June.

Hibs announced on Tuesday that the centre-back will remain at the club under new manager Neil Lennon, signing a new deal that will keep him in the Scottish capital until 2019.

Hanlon told the club's official website: "I'm determined to build on our success from last season and get Hibs back to the Premiership.

"There is a real excitement following the end to the season and, with Neil coming in, I'm looking forward to getting started again."

Hibs, holders of the Scottish Cup, were relegated into the Scottish Championship in 2014.
