He has tremendous stamina, is always eager to push forward and support the attack, and has grown into a very reliable full-back defensively.
He was determined to make this move happen, which speaks volumes about his hunger and his desire to be part of the project here.
Cadden also has two Scotland caps, and Robinson wanted to add someone with broad experience who understands this league inside out.
Cadden, whose brother Nicky remains with Hibs, said that having worked with the manager before, he knows the scale of his ambition and what he aims to achieve. The manager’s passion and vision for the team were clear, and this represents a fresh challenge for him.
Hibs head coach David Gray paid tribute, describing him as a brilliant servant to the club.
He added that the player’s energy, consistency, professionalism, and day-to-day standards have set the benchmark for new arrivals and young players coming through.
Gray acknowledged they could not offer him as much game time as he wanted and, at this stage of his career, they understand his wish to maximise his playing opportunities.
