Hibernian has agreed a two-year contract with ex-Celtic and Manchester United midfielder Liam Miller.

The 28-year-old Republic of Ireland international was available outside the transfer window after being without a club since being released by Queens Park Rangers in May.

Miller will become John Hughes' sixth signing since he became Hibs boss this summer.

Hughes told his club's website: "I am delighted that we have secured the services of a player with the experience and qualities of Liam Miller."

He added: "I said at the end of the transfer window that we would not stop looking for the type of player we felt would enhance our squad, and I don't think there is any doubt that Liam will do that.

"When you look at the clubs Liam has played for, you know that he is a footballer of real quality, and at 28 years old is at an age where his best years are still ahead of him."

Miller added: "I am excited about joining Hibernian and have been very impressed with the set-up at the training centre and within the club.

"I'm really looking forward to playing football in Scotland again, and can't wait to start training with the boys and competing for a place in the team."

Miller, who came through the ranks at Celtic before joining United aged 22, also played for Leeds, Sunderland and AG in Denmark.
