Miguel Chaiwa (born 7 June 2004, age 22) is a Zambia international defensive midfielder with Hibernian, where he wears number 14. He is valued at around Β£1m by Transfermarkt, which is about right for a young player already getting proper first-team football.
His 2025-26 season has been his most productive league campaign so far. Chaiwa has made 28 league appearances for Hibs and scored one league goal, with further outings in cup and qualifying competitions taking him to 32 appearances and one goal for the club across all competitions.
That regular involvement has kept him relevant in the Hibernian side rather than merely around the squad. He has also represented Zambia this season, making three World Cup qualifying appearances in Africa.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in February 2026 and again in April while at Hibernian. For now, his career is straightforward enough: a young Zambian holding midfielder playing regularly in Scotland and building senior experience at club and international level.
