Tennis ace Andy Murray tips Hibs duo for the top after helping to serve up new deals

BY ALAN TEMPLE – @CCP_Sport

TENNIS ace Andy Murray has tipped Ryan Porteous and Fraser Murray for the top after helping to serve up new contracts to the highly-rated Hibs youngsters.

The Easter Road duo, both 19, have penned new contracts with the capital club until the summer of 2023 after impressing head coach Neil Lennon.

Scotland under-21 star Porteous and promising playmaker Murray are benefitting from the guidance of the two-time Wimbledon champion after signing up with his 77 Sports Management agency.

And the Scottish sporting legend has no doubt they are destined for bright futures in the game.

Murray said: “Ryan and Fraser have come up through the academy at Hibs and I know everyone at the club thinks very highly of them.

“It’s great to be involved in helping them both realise their potential, I’m convinced both will go on to have great careers.”
