Junior Hoilett, a 35-year-old Canadian winger, wants to play for Canada in the World Cup, but his inclusion in the tournament is not certain. He has been in regular contact with Canada manager Jesse Marsch. It is understood that these conversations stressed the importance of consistent playing time for his selection. This led to discussions with Hibs about a permanent exit, and before the deadline on Monday evening, he joined Swindon Town, a club in England's fourth tier, on February 2, 2026, on a contract that expires on May 31, 2026. For the 2025/2026 season in the Scottish Premiership, Hoilett made 14 appearances, scoring 3 goals and providing 1 assist. He has 68 caps and 17 goals for Canada, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €50k.
