Hibernian have announced that Ewan Henderson has been sold to Belgian side Beerschot for an undisclosed fee.
Henderson joined Hibs in January 2022 from Celtic, initially on loan, and made 56 appearances for the club but spent last season on loan in Belgium playing for Oostende in the second tier.
His performances caught the eye of Beerschot, who won the division, and manager Dirk Kuyt has added the 24-year-old to his squad as they prepare for their return to the top flight.
Hibs say they will receive a six-figure sum and have a sell-on clause in the deal.
Head coach David Gray said: “I wish Hendo all the best for the future.
“He showed last season that the style of football in Belgium really suits him and shows off some of his best attributes. I think he will relish a new environment and kick on in his career.”
Sporting director Malky Mackay added: “This deal makes complete sense for both the club and for Ewan. He performed well in Belgium last season, which has earnt him this move and the opportunity to progress in his career.
“I’ve known him for a number of years and I wish him nothing but the best for the future.”
