Paatelainen admits every Hibernian player has his price

Hibernian boss Mixu Paatelainen admits the club will sell if their valuation of a player is met. Speculation continues to grow over the futures of Steven Fletcher and Rob Jones.

Easter Road chairman Rod Petrie has stood firm in the past to get the best possible deal for the club but Paatelainen revealed there will be little they can do if a suitable offer arrives for a player.

He said: "It is a difficult one because I do want to keep my best players and players who have been performing solidly all season. There is no question I want to strengthen the team and keep our better players and hopefully add one or two.

"That is progress and development. Unfortunately, transfers are part and parcel of football. Clubs might come in that offer the club the kind of fees they can't refuse."
