# List of Hibernian F.C. players

This is a list of notable footballers who have played for Hibernian from the formation of the club in 1875 to present. It generally includes only players who made more than 100 league appearances for the club, but some players with fewer than 100 appearances are also included. This includes players who have set a club record, such as most appearances, most goals or biggest transfer fee.
Some of the players listed made few or no league appearances for Hibs, due to their playing for the club before it entered the Scottish Football League in 1893.
The club first created a hall of fame in July 2010 to mark its 135th birthday. The first group of nominees were publicised in August 2010 and were inducted at a dinner on 15 October. Further groups of players were inducted in November 2012 and February 2017.
