Saint Mirren FC defender David van Zanten will join Scottish Premier League rivals Hibernian FC when his contract expires in the summer. The 26-year-old former Celtic FC full-back has signed a three-year deal.

"We contacted Saint Mirren some time ago to speak to David, who is a player I know well," said Hibernian manager Mixu Paatelainen, a team-mate of Van Zanten's during his own playing days at Easter Road. "He is an experienced player who can play in a number of positions. I look forward to working with him."
