Josh Ginnelly makes new Hearts deal case as Lawrence Shankland scoring stat fires them above legends

Josh Ginnelly's Hearts future remains up in the air with the forward out of contract in a matter of weeks.

Boss Steven Naismith has said decisions and offers will be made closer to the end of the season, although that's fast approaching with only two Scottish Premiership games remaining. There's also the small matter of whether Hearts will guarantee themselves European group stage football for the second season in succession.

They have worked to do and favours needed, but Saturday's come-from-behind win at home to Aberdeen keeps the race for third alive ahead of Wednesday's card. They may need to take something at Ibrox – a rare occurrence for the men in maroon – with the Dons at home to St Mirren knowing that three points against the Buddies will mean the Jambos must match that result in Govan to take it to a final day shootout to finish best of the rest.
