Hibs sign Oldham Striker

Oldham Athletic striker Chris Killen (24) has this morning signed an 18 month contract with the club after passing a medical yesterday afternoon.

Killen was signed by Oldham from Manchester City for £200,000 in July 2002.

Commenting on the signing, Manager Tony Mowbray said: ?We have been watching Chris for sometime and were actually looking to sign him this time last year however he was scoring too many goals and Oldham were not prepared to release him. He adds a degree of depth to the squad and creates even more competition for the striking roles which has to be a good for the Club.?
