Hearts forward Barrie McKay is expected to be involved in pre-season training this summer after successfully undergoing surgery on an ankle injury.
The Edinburgh Evening News reports that the 28-year-old has had a niggling injury issue and that a tidy-up on his ankle was done last week. He has since been given a protective boot to heal the area, and is anticipated to recover within a matter of weeks in time for preparations for the new Premiership campaign and the Jambos' European qualifiers.
Last term, McKay only managed four goals in 49 appearances as Hearts ended up fourth in the league, with his minor ankle complaint cropping up towards the end of the season.
