Callum Paterson shuts down Hearts return with Scotland international keen to stay in England

Callum Paterson has shut down any notion of a return to Hearts this summer, and says his heart is set on trying to help an English Championship side win promotion to the Premier League.

The versatile player, who scored 38 goals in 158 games for the Jambos between 2012 and 2017, looks sets to depart Sheffield Wednesday at the expiration of his contract on June 30, despite helping them win promotion back to the second tier at Wembley on Monday afternoon.

Paterson was heavily linked with a move back to Tynecastle in January, but the deal fell apart after the two clubs failed to agree on a fee. The Scotland international previously spent three years with Cardiff City after leaving Gorgie, and scored four goals in 28 appearances in the 2018/19 season in the Premier League.
