Hibernian have announced their third signing in 24 hours, with Australian full-back Lewis Miller on his way, pending international clearance.

Miller had agreed a pre-contract switch from Central Coast Mariners to A-League rivals Macarthur, but has been lured to Scotland on a three-year deal, with the terms of the move undisclosed.

The Easter Road club have also added central defender Rocky Bushiri on a three-year deal and arranged a season-long loan for striker Momodou Bojang.

Belgian Bushiri, 22, is returning to Edinburgh after making 15 appearances on loan from Norwich City to trigger the option of a permanent move.

Meanwhile Bojang, 20, is coming from Gambian club Rainbow FC.

The Gambia Under-20 cap spent last season with Famalicao's Under-23 side in Portugal, scoring six goals.

Miller is currently on Under-23 duty with Australia and new Hibs manager Lee Johnson says the club saw off "fierce competition from interested parties in Scotland and across the globe" for his signature.

"Lewis is a real competitor in his game style and is blessed with the physical and technical attributes to seamlessly fit into the way we work," he added.

Of Bushiri, Johnson said the former Belgium U21 international has "a lot of attributes" to be successful.

"He has obvious strengths and it'll be interesting to see how quickly he can adapt to a new playing style," Johnson commented.

The deal for Bojang includes an option to make the move permanent.

"There was a lot of interest in him from Portugal, Sweden, and in the MLS, but he chose Hibs to be his home," said Johnson.

"He's a player that's incredibly hungry to succeed and I'm looking forward to seeing how quickly he can adapt to the Scottish game."
