Portuguese forward Ricardo Vaz Te has completed a move to Scottish Premier League side Hibernian until the end of the season, manager Colin Calderwood confirmed on Monday.
The former Bolton player was a free agent after he was released from his deal with Greek side Panionios and impressed on trial at Easter Road.
The 24-year-old former Portugal Under-21 international will be included in Hibs' squad for Tuesday's Premier League clash at Hamilton.
Calderwood said: "Everything's completed now so we're delighted to announce he's confirmed as a Hibernian player.
"He's missed a bit of football so there's a bit of fitness he's got to regain, but we'll stick him in the squad for Tuesday night.
"The reason to bring him in is to try and see what he can do -- we'll try and push that as soon as possible.
"It's an opportunity for him and ourselves to assess one another and see if we can have a fruitful end to the season.
"He's got good pace, good technical ability and has shown good shooting prowess in training."
