Hibernian Target Birmingham's Lyndon Dykes On Loan

Birmingham striker Lyndon Dykes looks to be on his way to Scottish Premiership side Hibernian.

The deal will be a season-long loan rather than a permanent transfer.

The Australian-born man has faced increasing competition at The Blues.

Dykes' Game Time Limited

Despite featuring in four of six Championship games, they have all been off the bench very late on, with only 23 minutes in total.

The 29-year-old did score against Blackburn Rovers in a 2-1 win on 16 August.

With Jay Stansfield, Kyogo Furuhashi and Marvin Ducksch all vying for a starting berth, Dykes' opportunities will be severly limited and the Scottish international has decided a loan move is the best course of action.

Previous Record in Scotland

The striker has 128 games of experience in Scottish football, playing for Livingstone and Queen of the South.

100 games to be exact came in the Scottish second tier, where he scored 12 goals and got 25 assist from 2016 to 2019.

A move to the Premiership came with a more prolific return, scoring 11 and adding 8 assists in only 28 games, before a move to Queens Park Rangers.

Dykes clearly has the capabilities to be a standout striker in the Scottish Premiership, and at the peak of his years, it may be exactly what he needs after going stale in the Midlands.
