Aidan Denholm has joined Ross County on loan.
The midfielder makes the move north for the 2024/25 season, subject to Scottish FA approval.
20-year-old Aidan made his first-team debut back in 2021 before enjoying loan spells at Berwick Rangers and East Fife.
Last season saw him make his breakthrough into the Hearts top team and to date has amassed 24 appearances in maroon.
He’ll now continue his development in Dingwall and Head Coach Steven Naismith believes the opportunity of regular first-team football will prove to be beneficial.
Speaking to the Official Hearts Website, Steven said: “It’s a good move for Aidan who will get to work under a top operator in Don Cowie.
“Aidan did really well last season to come into the team but to really progress he needs a consistent run of games.
“We have recruited with purpose for our domestic and European campaigns so the opportunities that were there last year may not be there this season.
“By going to Ross County Aidan can continue his development by staying in the top flight and staking his case for regular minutes on the pitch.
“He can then return to Hearts with more experience under his belt and look to push on for a starting place at Tynecastle next season.
