Steven Fletcher
Scottish international Fletcher, capped four times by his country has netted over 50 goals for Hibs in almost 190 appearances but has jumped at the chance to further his career in the Premier League in England.

His international debut came in March of last year against Croatia and he scored his first Scotland goal in a 2-1 win over Iceland recently in a World Cup qualifier at Hampden Park.

His signing smashes the club record which was, apparently, around £1.5 million paid for both Martin Paterson and Chris Eagles last summer. He will be presented to the media on Thursday at 1:30 p.m. after his first training session with his new team mates.
