First team

Grant and McKay to depart Hearts

13 May 2025

Heart of Midlothian can confirm that Jorge Grant and Barrie McKay will leave the club at the end of the season.

 

The duo will move on from Tynecastle Park upon the expiration of their contracts in June.

 

Both have played key roles in the first-team in recent years, in particular helping the club to secure European football three-years in a row.

 

30-year-old Jorge was a June 2022 arrival in Gorgie and has gone on to make 112 appearances in maroon, scoring 10 goals.

 

Barrie joined the Jambos back in September 2021. His form saw him called up to the Scotland squad a year later, and to date he has pulled on the maroon jersey 114 times, and has scored six goals.

 

The club thanks Jorge and Barrie for all of their efforts at Hearts, and at full time after Wednesday night’s Premiership match with St Johnstone, the first-team will form a guard of honour to show their appreciation to their departing teammates, before the entire squad completes a lap of the pitch to show their appreciation to the supporters in the stands.
