Kanayo Megwa, born on 5 March 2004 (age 22), is an English right-back primarily associated with Hibernian. His senior career is still at the stage where opportunities matter more than decoration, with his early league involvement including a single appearance in 2022-23.
His Celtic connection came into clearer view in 2025-26. He has made 17 appearances for the club across all competitions, including 12 in the league, with further involvement in the League Cup, Scottish Cup and European qualifiers. He has not scored, which is hardly a scandal for a right-back.
His form this season has been solid and consistent, suggesting a player handling his minutes without too much fuss. Megwa remains a developing professional: a right-back with first-team experience in Scotland, a Celtic spell on his record, and a career still being properly shaped.
