Hearts club-trained players

• Harry Stone (GK): no league minutes yet
• Finlay Pollock (MID): no league minutes yet

On the record we can verify, 7 players club-trained at Hearts now play for other clubs we track, led by Makenzie Kirk (Portsmouth, value €2m), Alex Petkov (Kifisia, value €1m) and Aidan Denholm (Livingston, value €1m).

• Makenzie Kirk · Portsmouth · €2m
• Alex Petkov · Kifisia · €1m
• Aidan Denholm · Livingston · €1m
• Jamie Brandon · Kilmarnock · €410k
• Jordan McGhee · Motherwell · €190k
• Sam Nicholson · Motherwell · €180k
• Jack Hamilton · Livingston · €120k

We count a player as club-trained when his record shows him registered with the club for three entire seasons or 36 months between the ages of 15 and 21 (UEFA's home-grown test), wherever he started and whatever he cost; time on loan counts for the club that borrowed him.
