Hearts’ 16-year-old Keir McMeekin could be heading to Man City in the summer… and now England want him to switch allegiances from Scotland

Hearts teenager Keir McMeekin has been approached to switch allegiances from Scotland to England.

The 16-year-old, who has been linked with a move to EPL giants Manchester City in the summer, has turned out for the Scots’ Under-17 side.

As well as both Scotland and England, McMeekin also qualifies for Northern Ireland, and is said to be considering his international options.

A midfielder held in the highest regard by everyone at Tynecastle, it is only a matter of time until McMeekin breaks through into the first-team setup and is thought to be close to a full debut for Derek McInnes’ side.
