Lennon, who signed Ambrose for Celtic from Israeli side FC Ashdod also said the Nigerian has proved he is still a top notch defender in the five games he has played for the leaders since he arrived in February.

“I think this has been good for both parties, I think it’s been excellent for Efe to get his profile back in the right manner, a positive manner – and show Scotland, Britain, Europe and the people back home in Nigeria what a class act he is,” the Hibernian manager remarked.

“He really enjoyed the moment and he has been a great piece of business for us.”
