Stephen Kingsley is hoping the Spanish sunshine can spark a revival when Hearts return to Premiership action on December 17.
The defender had been missing for a month after suffering an injury in the Europa Conference League clash with Latvians RFS. But he returned in a bounce game against former club Swansea City and now he's stepping it up in the Spanish sunshine as the Jambos make their preparations of the resumption of the Scottish action.
Hearts fell down to fifth before the break after losing to Rangers and drawing with Livingston. But Kingsley reckons they came come back flying out of the traps. He'll be back involved today when Robbie Neilson's side take on Blackburn Rovers in a friendly in Marbella with a second match against Almeria on Sunday.
