Steven Naismith has told Robert Snodgrass that he won’t be getting much game time under him and that it's best if he leaves Hearts to return to his family in England.
Record Sport exclusively revealed on Tuesday that Snodgrass was in talks over his Tynecastle future and his contract was set to be ripped up early ahead of it expiring in the summer. The former Leeds and West ham star was sent off during Saturday’s 2-0 home defeat to St Mirren and that is almost certainly his last act in maroon.
Interim boss Naismith, who replaced Robbie Neilson after his sacking on Sunday, confirmed that he;s spoken with Snodgrass and a decision has been reached. He said: “I had a conversation with Snoddy. I have a good relationship with Snoddy as a player and a teammate. The decision’s been made that he’s probably not going to get many minutes. I’ve experienced that myself as a player and we had a talk about it.
