'I know he'd come to Hearts': Jambos-daft boxer urges club to sign Jason Cummings


Scoring goals was a problem during the Betfred Cup campaign, something which led supporters to call for the club to snap up the Nottingham Forest forward.
Cummings is allowed to leave Forest this summer after failing to make much of an impact in his two years at the City Ground following his move from Hibs.

McGregor believes Hearts should offer a lifeline and bring the Scottish international back to Edinburgh.
He tweeted: "Dying to get a move back to Scotland I cannot understand why Hearts haven’t snapped him up yet! Trust me this boy would score goals for us and he’s exactly what we need!"
McGregor and Cummings are childhood friends having grown up together in the same area of Edinburgh and the Commonwealth bantamweight champion insists his old pal would have no qualms about joining their boyhood favourites.
Replying to a poster who asked whether Cummings would come to Hearts, having helped Hibs win the Scottish Cup in 2016, McGregor said emphatically: "I know he'd come to Hearts."

Cummings netted five times against Hearts during his time at Easter Road, including three times in the Scottish Cup.
