Garang Kuol was a second-half substitute for Hearts in their win over St. Mirren this evening. The young Australian forward came on in the 76th minute as he made his debut for Robbie Neilson's side in the Scottish Premiership.
The 18-year-old -who wore the number 61 shirt on his debut - replaced Barrie McKay for the final few minutes of the second-half as Hearts moved six points clear of Aberdeen in third. Speaking after signing for the club, Kuol said: "I'm very happy to be here, I can't wait to play here in front of the amazing fans. I just thought the team is a great team, great club, great history, beautiful stadium and great fans.
"Also, the gaffer. He swayed me with his plan to come in and join the boys and my development path. I think it was a very good decision. The club's ambition, their goals and I thought I wanted to be involved.
