I'd like to see us do that now, hoping we don't miss out. I wonder how much better our season could have been if we'd signed him in the summer instead of Big Dave.

[Jim44]

Big personal decision which you don’t take lightly. I’d like to see him bag a couple tonight. I didn’t realise he was of Albanian descent.

Sad news about his grandad I’m sure many of us can relate to which shows the strength of character he has.

That's my concern, tbh I feel the same with Allan, hoping their performances don't alert them to other clubs who can pay far more than us,

[LancsHibs]

Do we have first dibs on him or something? If yes get him signed up!!!!

[B.H.F.C]

Shows how much he must be enjoying it here as you don’t take that kind of decision lightly.

Compare that to the attitude of some previous loan players. Different class.

[hughio]

Good song about Kamberi heard after the derby


To the tune of The lion sleeps tonight;-

"He's a striker a six foot striker
He plays the Hibees way.

Hes a striker a six foot striker his name is Kamberi

ah Kamberi ah Kamberi etc"

[Sauzee16]

Except for the fact he couldn't lace Libbra's boots.

He has been okay but not so spectacular that we should panic.

In terms of coming in and making an impact from January relatively unknown whilst both being around the same height and build too with the doubt that the more Kamberi contributes we won’t be able to keep hold of him exactly like ML. I wasn’t saying they are similar talents.

[we are hibs]

He is everything i was expecting the big Lithuanian to be. I'd like to keep him as he brings more to the team than just goals.

[Big_Franck]

What a boy. I love big Flo more each passing week. Hope he gets one tonight.

Him and McLaren look like a front two rather than two boys who play up front. Been a while since we have had that.

No argument here.

I wasn't having a pop at him. Just thought Libbra had that bit more about him that made him prone to being poached from under our noses. I like FK and think he'll get better and better under Lennon.

Back to the original point I'm delighted he had chosen to play tonight and I'm sure he'll do his great grandfather proud.

Libbra was a lot more experienced. Kamberi is still learning his trade and I reckon he has some assets that Libbra lacked, particularly pace.

Great commitment from the laddie, hope he does get his reward tonight.

[Deansy]

Cheers Florian - your gesture's greatly appreciated and I hope you net one or two for your Grand-dad !

[Albanian Hibs]

🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱

[CmoantheHibs]

I really like flo. I don't think he is exceptional at anything but does everything well. He is extremely clever about his body positioning and will win us lots of free kicks. Clever player who will become a fantastic player for us.

[Albanian Hibs]

Great chant tonight 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱

[we are hibs]

had a hard shift tonight but thought he played well. really strong and powerful, good with the ball at his feet and runs himself into the ground.

[calumhibee1]

Great chant tonight 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱

Couldn’t make it out, what was it?

[gaz1875]

Done his best considering he was up against three defenders, great effort :top marks

[Lancs Harp]

Ive been impressed with Flo. Not short of ability and never stops running or trying. Got a decent touch for a big man and is far more mobile than say Holt was last season and although not as physical as Holt he can certainly look after himself. Been pretty impressed with him so far.

Felt a bit sorry for MaClaren having to come off so early. Was the right decision IMO but felt for the lad as hes desperate to make his mark. Potentially a very good front two those two.

[The_Horde]

Goals drying up for the big man now as I suspected. Not the best goalscorer but his energy is great, as a defender from the from you can't ask for more.

[skyhibs]

He had a brilliant shift tonight... held the ball up well too

hope we can get him signed up

[neil7908]

I like the look of him a lot. He's big and strong, wins his fair share of headers but is also good with the ball at his feet and looks a really intelligent player.

He's not necessarily a 20-25 goal a season striker IMO but a great link up player who will battle, bring others into the game and get his fair share of goals.

[kaimendhibs]

He was brilliant tonight. Never gave the defenders peace, holds the ball up great

[heretoday]

He did well tonight. The chances he had were very sharp ones. He's fast and not scared to have a go.

[blackpoolhibs]

Remember when folk said Grant Holt was great at holding the ball up, and bringing others into the game?

Well so far big Flo does that, but he does it up against their central defenders, he also shuts them down, has a bit of pace and also scores goals rather than hide out wide all game.

This is what being a target man is all about, keep it going Flo. :top marks

[Allant1981]

has he not scored 3/5? or 3/6, thats still not a bad return so far

He definitely looks the real deal so far. Be happy if we manage to keep him for longer.

[B.H.F.C]

Good player. If we can sign him permenantly it would be great business. He’s got a bit of everything. Would be my top priority for the summer.

[Hibee87]

I said in the match thread that i thihght he was brilliant last night. Ita not easy to play on your own up top, let alone with your back to goal and not much options when you f
Do get the ball. I thought he he held the ball well when he had to, drew a foul when he knew he had no choice and the way he gets infornt of a man and lets the ball come to him is the best ive seen from a striker in a while. My oldny criticisim would be thay he could have chased or closed down a couple times but he is uoung. If he keep him. I thik he could be a real great player

[SouthMoroccoStu]

[Scooter]

Intelligent movement, clever striker.

I really really like him he does a lot of good things. But for me the thing I like is, that he is good but there is also a lot to work on that he could be Great. I think he needs to improve his movement and timing in tobthe box. There was a run he made to the front post against hearts and made the same run against saints where he got his timing and positioning wrong and he might have been better peeling off and going to back post. On both these runs I'm talking about but the time the ball actually got to him he was too far in front of the front post to have any chance of going in.as I said a really really like would love him to stay as he improves and gets more experienced he could be great

[HTD1875]

Hearing Flo Kamberi has agreed personal terms with Hibs and he will sign from Grasshoppers on a permanent deal. Fee believed to be around 100-150k mark. 3/4 year deal.

Hibs may wait until the kit launch to announce this officially, if what I’m told is true.

If we get the three in your post we would be behind where we ended up given who is likely not to be here(SJM, McLaren and Dylan maybe even Efe). We have lost 2 out of the last three Derbies and ended up 4th so to be where you say I think we have to improve personnel over last year. That will not be an easy job and those signings as you say would have to be for starters..

From what i hear, the away kit is a thing of beauty

If we get the three in your post we would be behind where we ended up given who is likely not to be here(SJM, McLaren and Dylan maybe even Efe). We have lost 2 out of the last three Derbies and ended up 4th so to be where you say I think we have to improve personnel over last year. That will not be an easy job and those signings as you say would have to be for starters..

I understand your post but I think the point is that if we get Kamberi, Allan and Mallan then we are getting 3 known quality players and really aiming for the right level of player.

Whether we lose Dylan, John and Efe is not a given but if we do then signing the other 3 shows a level of intent that bodes well for any replacements we bring in.

There is a long way to go in the transfer window and many surprises to come. However, I think that Hibs have shown a decent track record in recent seasons.

These are important points. However - key components of the squad that finished the season were only added in January. Our form with the team we had after the January window was better than fourth.

Lots of work to do at ER but we're starting from a good base.

Had we started the season with the team we had in January we'd have strolled second place.

If that’s true it’s still a bargain. The potential he has indicates a bright future and Hibs could make a lot of money from any future transfer. He is a brighter prospect than Riordan was in my opinion, especially with the additional work rate (And I adored Deek!)

He couldn’t be any further from Derek as a player? Compare him to O’Connor and you’d be onto something but Derek was a left sided forward player in his prime, Kamberi is an out and out number 9.

The longer it drags on the more I've gone from supreme confidence to more & more doubtful he will sign.

[Ronniekirk]

All we ever had was first option to buy The negotiations with the player would probably have been done and dusted by now but with other Clubs expressing an interest his Agent will be trying to get him to keep an open mind till nearer the deadline date while at the same time getting the best deal possible for his client from Hibs Seems fair enough to me
Lennon and The Cat both seem to think a deal will be done so think it will be
But if money starts to turn the lads head then we have no chance
I think he feels Lennon can develop him further and he has a good vibe about where the Club are going If the deal is structured right I think he will sign but we only get one Season out him if he keeps banging the goals in But would settle for that and a health profit when we sell him on

Hibs and Grasshoppers can't really scupper the deal as they've agreed.

My concern is Kamberi and / or agent get greedy.

Another factor could be if we don't sign another few players before closing date and it's clear other key players are moving on he may not feel the team is as strong and as the one he played in and that may be just as influential

[Heisenberg]

Lennon didnt sound too downbeat when he was asked about Kamberi on Saturday. He also said he was hopeful of a positive outcome. Can definitley see it dragging out until quite close to the 14th though.

[superfurryhibby]

Is it unheard of to offer players a cut of future transfer fees, with clauses about amounts required to be released?

In terms of Kamberi, I think he is a vital signing for the coming season. I wonder how willing English teams are to gamble on someone who’s really only done it in the SPL for six months? Guys like Adam Rooney and Louis Moult managed a consistent goals record for a couple of season and couldn’t cut it in the Championship.

There’s far more successes than failures that go down to English football from Scotland so I don’t think that would be a valid concern for them. I’d hazard a guess the French market has been much more unreliable for English clubs but I doubt they’ll stop buying players from France.

[Hibs90]

The longer this goes on the more unlikely he is to sign, but then again look at the Stokes saga.

Not feeling confident about this going through now.

Not sure how you would really quantify that? I think of guys like Rooney, Stevie May, Jason Cummings, Louis Moult, Billy McKay, Stokes ( maybe for different reasons). All strikers who did well up here but never made an impression down south.

Can’t really be arsed thinking about them all again but there’s also a fairly comprehensive list of players that have gone down from Scotland to Englandshire that have done really well and considering they cost absolute buttons I’d say we are a pretty good value market for the English.

Not sure how many were strikers to be fair so you might be right in that regard but overall I think any English club dismissing the Scottish league because of a few flops would be mad.

Soon isn’t 24hrs. Soon is within a couple of weeks not the end of the window. More so when a lot of the players still on hol.

For what it’s worth I posted Stokes would sign about 6 weeks before it was actually announced. I also expect Mallan soon as well. How soon?... Maybe next week if things can be sorted. If not doesn’t mean he’s not coming as he is. Along with Kamberi.

The hits from the French league have been pretty good, but for every Eric Cantona there are a few William Pruniers and Didier N'Dongs.

I always find it hard to predict which Scottish based players will be successful down South. Some really good players go and struggle, some honest grafters seem to thrive.

Well, at least you are still confident.

FWIW I'm quite enjoying the drama and it is the same every year.

However, LD has turned down Plymouth. Lennon is staying. Things seem to be going positively as far as I'm concerned.

A signing would settle a few nerves though.

I agree an early signing is always a good. But if to get quality means a slight delay I don’t mind. Think it would give season ticket sales a little boost as well so I’m sure they’ll try get a couple in asap.

I'd still like to see Kenny Miller get offered a one year contract. We have Oli Shaw and, presumably, Kamberi who are 2 exciting young strikers who would be improved by playing and training with someone of Miller's pedigree. He has plenty to offer on the park in his own right too, imo.

Think there will be at least 2 deals done in the next 2 weeks before the team returns for pre season. Think Lennon eluded to trying to get in a few before players returned.

[Viva_Palmeiras]

Reasons to hold back on announcing will be varied. Keeps other agents and players in negotiations on their toes and perhaps temper demands...? Who knows but don’t think it’s always doom and gloom

He might be able to escape from Sunderland with a decent pay off, meaning that he won't have an acute need for cash from us. He must have made a few quid in his career.
