Dylan Levitt believes joining Hibs will provide him with the perfect opportunity to regain his place in the Wales team. The midfielder recently finalised his transfer from Dundee United, becoming Lee Johnson’s sixth signing of the summer. Levitt, along with his new teammates, have departed for a warm weather training camp in Marbella.
