Described as a “commanding goalkeeper” by his new club, the custodian joins the under-18 side at Tynecastle after putting pen to paper on a professional deal.
Academy director Frankie McAvoy told the Hearts website: “There was a lot of interest in Scott, both in Scotland and England, so we’re delighted that he’s chosen to join Hearts.
“He’s a young goalkeeper, a good communicator with bags of potential and we feel we can give Scott a great environment in which he has the opportunity to work hard and progress.
