New boy Connor Randall pleased to join Hearts from Liverpool.

Connor Randall admits he jumped at the chance to join the Jambos and now can’t wait to pull on the maroon jersey for the first time.

The 21-year-old became Ian Cathro’s latest summer signing when he joined on season-long loan from Liverpool on Friday.

Speaking to Hearts TV at Tynecastle Park, the Liverpool-born midfielder said:

“It’s great to be here. I’ve only just arrived but the stadium looks great, there’s a new stand on the way and I’m sure the atmosphere will be fantastic.

“When I heard Hearts were interested I jumped at it. I couldn’t turn it down, it’s a great club and I can’t wait to get going.

“I’m eager to get games under my belt. I’m a versatile player, I play with a lot of commitment and energy and I like to get up and down the pitch.”
