Newcastle United youngster Garang Kuol has held talks with Scottish Premiership side Hearts as he prepares to leave Tyneside on loan. The 18-year-old Aussie sensation officially joined the Magpies on January 1 after saying goodbye to Central Coast Mariners, with Eddie Howe wasting no time finding him a switch elsewhere.
Kuol has been courted by a number of Championship and Scottish sides in recent days but dropped a huge hint he was heading to Edinburgh on Thursday morning by posting a photo of the city on his Instagram story.
Hours later the forward was spotted arriving at Hearts' Oriam training base for a tour of the club's facilities. Kuol was flanked by his entourage and Newcastle loan chief Shola Ameobi as he entered the premises.
