    I was in holiday in Puglia last week, after dropping my daughter at the airport I followed sat nav into Bari to try and get a Bari top with Henderson on the back for junior. Drove right to the city centre but the spot where the club shop was supposed to be had the shutters up. I assumed the sat nav had got it wrong or it was the mezzogiorno shutting up early but now I'm thinking it might have been something more ominous for the club

    Really hope he gets a move to la viola.
    Puglia. Great place.
    Alberrobello & the Trulli houses - stunning

    Why do Liam Henderson threads always end up as Italian Tourist Board adverts!

    If they've dropped to an amateur league, he may be free to cancel his contract, so no transfer fee would apply.
    I would have thought he would be. Although that probably depends whether it is actually amateur or if it’s an Italian version of Juniors/Lowland League.

    To be fair, some of them were more about the Hibs, in discussing the Picinisco & Sant'Elia Fuimerapido villages in Southern Italy where a lot of Scots-Italians came from, including a good number of Hibbies [SHC]

    I know Italy well. My comment was tongue in cheek.

    As I understand it, the deposit applies to the top three divisions, so it's at least Serie D.

    In the similar case of 1860 Munich, the existing contracts were a breach of the lower league rules so were void as unenforceable. Germany may have different lower league rules than Italy though.

    On a (nother) tangent, it has always struck me as incredible, given the strong Scots-Italian links with Hibs, that - as far as I know - no Italian has played for Hibs.

    Marinello, Tortolano & Emilio Bottiglieri seem to be the closest we have (though happy to be corrected)

    Alborobello was a hoaching with tourists and souvenir stalls when we went, I much preferred some of the villages nearby, Locorotondo and Cisternino, but the whole Val d'Itria is just beautiful, will definitely be going back...Lecce too...
    STOP...... Thread hijack.

    'The Braveheart with Brazilian feet' sums Liam up perfectly. He'll be home at some point that's for sure. Hibee through and through.

    That's a good idea, I wonder why no other club has thought of doing that before.

    They'll want to distance themselves from any negative stuff though, yeah? They can just say it was the old club that was responsible and it's nothing to do with them.

    If he is now available. , and even putting the romance of the cup to one side , I’d hope we make him priority over and above the other names we have discussed all summer. Quality player ...
    Scott Allan is far more important for us imo. He is a must.

    Fair enough!

    Good luck Liam, come back to the Hibs one day after you’ve made your reputation in Italy and bought yourself a vineyard!

    He’s wanting to stay out there as the lifestyle is unbelievable he said. Don’t blame him. So unfortunately I can confirm there is zero chance of him playing at ER any time in the near future...

    He's not wrong about the Italian lifestyle. So hot here in Abruzzo today that I'm chilling my red wine!
