‘We’ll always support you’: Hearts fans react to Uche Ikpeazu’s new contract

Hearts fans are delighted to see Uche Ikpeazu sign a new contract with the club, keeping him in Gorgie until 2022. Here’s how they reacted on social media...

@mattleslie74: Uche signing a new deal. 1. He’s a good striker. 2. He’s a bloody nuisance for the opposition. 3. We can get a fee for him for when the inevitable selling on point arrives.

@theitalianjambo: Uche, can you think of a better way to celebrate this than firing a couple of balls in the back of the Dundee’s net?

@Brad190512: Now put Thistle to bed good and proper Boss!

@McIverTheMark: If there was ever anything to help me get over the Naismith news; it’s this. Uche’s here until 2022. Absolutely fantastic.

@graha1874: Hearts fans: ‘Is Levein joking? How are we gonna score any goals with Naismith out?!’ Also Hearts fans: ‘I just got a b***r from our one goal in ten league games striker signing a three year deal.’

@MatthewLoughto6: Yes great to see you staying at the Jam Tarts. @UcheIkpeazu
