Kanayo Megwa (born 5 March 2004, age 22) is an English right-back with Hibernian, still at the stage where his senior career is being built rather than settled.
His early league football included a 2022-23 spell at Kelty Hearts, where he made one appearance. At Hibernian, his senior record stands at one appearance across all competitions, coming in the Scottish Cup.
That Hibs outing came in a 2-1 defeat by Celtic on 3 May 2026. He has been outside the matchday squad in recent weeks, which leaves his immediate place in the side fairly plain.
Megwa’s career so far is a developing one: an English right-back on Hibernian’s books, with limited senior minutes and a first-team path still to be properly established.
