Felix Passlack's permanent transfer to Hibs has been officially confirmed, but the financial terms were not disclosed. It is the first time in his career that Passlack has been sold. Simon Zoller stated that Bochum consented to Passlack's request for a change and characterized the discussions as respectful and equal. David Gray, the head coach for Hibs, welcomed Felix Passlack to the club and described him as a tenacious, attacking player.

It is expected that Hibs will advance the signing of Felix Passlack from VfL Bochum this week. The 27-year-old defender is entering the final six months of his contract. Felix Passlack was left out of Bochum’s winter training camp win over Alemannia Aachen on Saturday by Uwe Rosler as a precaution. The German side intend to advance transfer talks with Hibs when they return from Turkey today.

VfL Bochum is concerned about the potential departure of Felix Passlack.
