Efe Ambrose: Livingston sign former Hibernian and Derby County defender

Scottish Premiership side Livingston have announced the signing of Efe Ambrose on a free transfer.

The Nigeria international, who had featured for Celtic and Hibernian, has returned to Scotland and signed an 18-month-contract with the Almondvale Stadium outfit.

The centre-back has been without a club since he was released by Championship side Derby County at the end of 2018-19 season after failing to make a single appearance for Frank Lampard’s former club.

On Tuesday, the 31-year-old completed his move to Livingston in his quest to reignite his career with the side.

Ambrose will link up with Angola’s Dolly Menga, South Africa’s Keaghan Jacobs, Togo’s Steve Lawson and Tunisia’s Aymen Souda at Almondvale Stadium.

The defender will wear the number 25 shirt and could make his debut for his new club when they take on his former side Hibernian on Saturday.
