Robert Snodgrass is laying the groundwork for a future in coaching, but his number one priority is getting fit enough to star for Hearts.
The Scotland international returned north of the border to pen a one-year deal with the Jambos earlier this month after leaving Luton Town in the summer. The 35-year-old is coming to the end of his playing days, but Robbie Neilson and Joe Savage felt he has enough still to offer at Tynecastle to justify adding him to their squad for the current campaign.
Snodgrass has managed just one appearance off the bench so far, coming on during their 3-0 victory away at Motherwell before the recent international break. It was his first competitive action of any sort for four months as he plays catch-up with his new teammates. It’s probably too soon for him to start against Rangers tomorrow and his first Tynecastle appearance will likely come from the bench if it happens.
