Lennon has reportedly been sounded out after admitting he'd be keen to have a 'conversation' over capital return.
The Hibees sacked Lee Johnson after a dismal start to the Premiership season that left them rooted to the bottom of the table with three defeats from their opening three games. Johnson was shown the door after a 3i2 home loss to Livingston proved to be the final straw for the Hibs hierarchy.
However, things started to go wrong in year three. And following poor run of form into January, a rumoured training ground bust up with members of the squad and then chief executive Leeann Dempster spelled the end for his time in Edinburgh. He was quickly back in management though, replacing brendan Rodgers after his shock departure from Celtic to Leicester City.
His last job saw him win the Cypriot Cup with Omonia Nicosia and qualification for the Europa League group stage before being harshly dismissed. Now Hibs have reportedly made him their No 1 target but it remains to be seen whether Lennon's interest at this stage goes beyond hearing what American owners the Gordon family have to say.
