Hibernian Football Club have announced Ian Gordon as their new chairman.

It comes amid a raft of board changes at the Easter Road club announced on Friday.

Gordon will assume his new role on June 1, succeeding Malcolm McPherson, the club’s current non-executive chairman.

Following the passing of his father, Ronald J Gordon, Ian has served as an executive director and has worked closely with Black Knight president, Tim Bezbatchenko, and the club’s senior leadership team.

The Gordon family and Hibernian FC have expressed their “sincere gratitude” for McPherson’s service to the club and he will remain on the board as a non-executive director.

Ryan Caswell, a board member of Black Knight, will continue in his role as a non-executive director and Colin Gordon will assume Kit Gordon’s seat.
