The Scottish side are expecting an international clearance for the player by the end of Wednesday.<\/p>\nAgogo is currently suffering a thigh strain, and will miss their game against Inverness Caledonian Thistle this weekend, but is scheduled for his debut in a friendly against Sunderland on Saturday week.<\/p>\n
“He is a proven goal scorer and a strong character and has already settled into life at Hibs since arriving on trial,\u201d Calderwood told the club’s website.<\/p>\n
\u201cJunior never gets fazed by challenges and will add another dimension to our attacking arsenal.”<\/p>\n
The former Nottingham Forest attacker is ready for the task ahead and pleased to rejoin Calderwood, who signed him for the Midlands side five years ago.<\/p>\n
“As soon as Colin told me about the opportunity, there was only one club that I wanted to sign for and that was Hibernian,\u201d the Ghana 2008 African Cup of Nations star said in a club statement.<\/p>\n
“I’ve enjoyed every minute of my time at Hibernian so far and the atmosphere within the squad is both positive and ambitious. I know what Colin wants from his players and I am aiming to deliver committed displays and goals to the team.<\/p>\n
“I’ve not played in Scotland before, but I’m really looking forward to the challenge ahead.”<\/p>\n
Agogo has previously played in the US, Egypt and Cyprus. He has been capped 27 times for Ghana, with 12 goals to his name.<\/p>\n
