EURO ADVENTURE HAS HOILETT ON WORLD CUP ALERT

Hibs ace relishing possibilities

- By Craig Swan

JUNIOR HOILETT reckons it’s special to reach Europe at this stage of his career.

And, with a home World Cup Finals also firmly in his sights, the Hibs star is ready for key talks over an Easter Road future.

Hoilett has been a revelation for boss David Gray during the club’s run to the continent.

If Celtic win the Scottish Cup Final, the capital club will hit the jackpot on and off the park with group-stage games guaranteed.

Turning 35 in June, Hoilett admits it would be wonderful to be part of such occasions as he explained: “It’s amazing. It’s a monumental moment.

“From where we started off in the season, to turn it around and to reach our goal to clinch European football... it’s amazing what this team has done. Each individual, the whole club really, from top to bottom.

“It’s a special moment for me to reach European football at this age. I’ve just got to enjoy the moment while it lasts.
