Jake Doyle-Hayes, a former Hibernian player, is taking legal action against the club for injuries incurred during a training match with ex-manager Lee Johnson in 2022. Lawyers claim that the ankle injury has severely limited his career. Doyle-Hayes underwent surgery due to a tackle by Johnson, which his representatives argue stemmed from managerial incompetence. They assert that the injury has caused substantial loss of earnings and derailed his career, as he likely would have progressed in his football journey without it. Hibernian acknowledges the claim but refrains from commenting further as the matter is ongoing.
The impact of this has greatly restricted his career. These injuries should never have happened and were incurred due to incompetent and incoherent decisions made by his manager.
Jake's career has been derailed by mismanagement and ineptitude. A career has been lost to this athlete.
Doyle-Hayes' lawyers argue that, without the injury, his career would have continued at a higher level.
A Hibs spokesperson said that Doyle-Hayes' playing time 'had been hampered by injury over the last two seasons.'
