The English teenager will join the Hibees initially on a six-month contract leaving English Northern Premier League side, Soham Town Rangers.
The youngster came through West Brom’s Academy before making the switch to MK Dons and representing them at U18 and U23 level. He’s since had senior experience with Soham Town Rangers.
Carter will train and play with the Development Squad at HTC, and the club have an option to extend his deal for another year.
Speaking on the new signing, Academy Director Steve Kean, said:
“Tom will add depth to our goalkeeping department in the Academy. He was previously involved in the West Brom Youth Academy and at MK Dons, who have a good history of producing good goalkeepers.
“He came up on trial with us and fitted in straight away with the goalkeeping staff.
“We feel the move will benefit Tom first and foremost, but also help our current Development Squad keeper, Murray Johnson. Having another goalkeeper in the building will be good for Murray’s development and help the club too.”
