Hibs boss Jack Ross has admits they're not ruling out losing players this summer, amid reported interest from Leeds in two of their academy products.

Both Josh Doig and Ethan Laidlaw have been linked with a move to the Whites recently and Ross has revealed the SPL club's stance on losing players in the summer.

He said: “That's the nature of the beast in all sports and all walks of life. The most powerful, richest and biggest clubs will always be in the best position to take the best players. We have to be realistic about that and try and keep our best players for as long as we can.

“But we also have to to have the foresight of we might lose them at some point. We then need to try and repeat the process, whether that is through our own system or through recruitment, identifying those who will make you a better team."
