On Monday, Tom Bogert of The Athletic reported that 19-year-old forward Colton Swan is expected to move to Hibernian in the Scottish Premier League from USL Championship side Charleston Battery. According to Bogert, MLS teams had considered signing Swan before Hibernian made a more attractive offer. The transfer seems to be a result of a partnership established between the Battery and Hibernian in 2020, which includes player development and scouting to provide a direct pathway to Europe for Charleston's players.
