He has been linked to many teams in England, with Montgomery admitting that other moves may be more tempting to Fish at present.
Montgomery, as quoted by the Edinburgh News, said: "If this is his last season, no doubt he'll look back on it with really fond memories of building his character.
But, for Will, I don't think he really needs a pitch from us. He really enjoys playing for Hibs. He really loves the club, and I think he enjoys the way we play.
Ultimately, it's going to be down to what options he has. And there are probably going to be other clubs looking at his form this season, his games here. We are a big club.
So, for Will, it's going to be what is going to be the best option for him. We're definitely going to be one of those options. But I'm sure there will be many others. And, whatever happens, we'll support Will in what that looks like."
