Lewis Miller joins Blackburn Rovers for undisclosed but significant fee
The terms of the 24-year-old's transfer will remain undisclosed, however, the Club has received a significant fee.
Miller joined Hibs in the summer of 2022 and went on to make 85 appearances in all competitions, scoring five goals.
The defender made a significant contribution during the 2024/25 campaign as Hibs finished third in the William Hill Premiership, securing European football.
During his time in Edinburgh, he earned his first senior caps for Australia's National Team and representing his country in major international tournaments.
On Miller's departure, Hibs Head Coach David Gray said: 'I'd like to start by thanking Millsy for all his efforts during his time with us.
'Since making the move to Scotland, he's been coachable, willing to learn, and has relentlessly worked on his game. He's certainly seen the rewards for that both at club level and internationally.
'We know he can go a long way and wish him all the best in England with Blackburn.'
Hibs Sporting Director Malky Mackay added: 'We triggered Lewis Miller's contract extension back in April, knowing there was a lot of interest in him from the UK and abroad.
'It's been widely reported that we rejected bids for him earlier in the window and have worked hard to get a fee that reflects his true value.
'I'd like to thank Lewis for all his efforts during his time with us and wish him all the best for the future.'

Five England players nominated for women's Ballon d'Or after Euro 2025 triumph
Five of England's European Championship-winning squad have been nominated for this year's women's Ballon d'Or, including three Arsenal players who claimed a club and country double of European titles this summer. Leah Williamson, Alessia Russo and Chloe Kelly all shared Champions League and Euros triumphs, and are joined on the nominees list by Lucy Bronze and Hannah Hampton, who both won domestic trebles with Chelsea and clinched back-to-back European titles with victory over Spain in Basel last month. For the men's Ballon d'Or, four English players have been nominated, with Jude Bellingham, Harry Kane, Cole Palmer and Declan Rice all on the list alongside Scotland's Scott McTominay, who has been recognised after his widely lauded contribution to Napoli's Serie A triumph. The Arsenal and England full-back Myles Lewis-Skelly made the young players' list. Sarina Wiegman, the Lionesses' coach, has been nominated for the women's Johan Cruyff Trophy, for the best coach, alongside Arsenal's Renée Slegers and Chelsea's Sonia Bompastor. Nigeria's Justine Madugu and Brazil's Arthur Elias have also been nominated after their triumphs in their respective continental competitions. The 19-year-old England striker, Michelle Agyemang, is nominated for the young player award – the Kopa Trophy. Her two late equalisers in the knockout stages of Euro 2025 were instrumental in England reaching the final. The Chelsea youngster Wieke Kaptein is also on that five-player list. Hampton, who saved two penalties in the Euro 2025 final, is also nominated for the Yashin Trophy for goalkeepers, along with Arsenal's Daphne van Domselaar. Seven Arsenal players are among the women's Ballon d'Or prize list, after their Champions League final victory over Barcelona in Lisbon, with Spain's Mariona Caldentey, Australia's Steph Catley, the USA's Emily Fox and Norway's Frida Maanum joining Williamson, Russo and Kelly. Chelsea have two further representatives in Sandy Baltimore and Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, while the Scotland and Real Madrid midfielder, Caroline Weir, has also made the list, alongside Brazil's Marta and last year's winner, Aitana Bonmatí of Spain. As expected, the men's Ballon d'Or list also includes big-name nominees such as Kylian Mbappé, Mohamed Salah and Vinícius Júnior, along with Manchester City's Erling Haaland and the new Arsenal signing Viktor Gyökeres. Arne Slot and Enzo Maresca are among five nominees for the men's coach prize. Chelsea and Liverpool have both been nominated for men's club of the year, while Arsenal and Chelsea are in the running for the women's club of the year.

Brittain looking to offer 'something different'
Middlesbrough defender Callum Brittain hopes he can bring "something different" to his new 27-year-old arrived this week on a four-year deal from fellow Championship side Blackburn Rovers. "He [Rob Edwards] just loves my energy, up and down on that right hand side," Brittain told BBC Radio Tees. "I think it's a bit different to what the rest of the lads have been playing as I am very direct on the ball, I like to cross the ball and get it in the box."Obviously there is the defensive side as well, trying to be as aggressive as I can, I like to be front footed, and love one-to-one defending as well."Looking ahead to what the season has in store, Brittain added: "We have to create an atmosphere inside the changing room. We all have to pull in the same direction and work for each other. "There is lots of quality in this dressing room and I think if we play with freedom and on the front foot, we can create a lot of chances this season."
