Grant and McKay leaving Hearts
Two players will receive a guard of honour after Wednesday's William Hill Premiership clash with St Johnstone.
Jorge Grant and Barrie McKay are leaving Tynecastle as their contracts expire in June.
Grant arrived in June 2022 and has made 112 appearances, scoring ten goals, and McKay joined in September 2021 and has played for the team on 114 occasions. He has scored six goals.
A club statement thanked the pair for their efforts and confirmed that the first-team players will form a guard of honour after the game before the squad completes a lap of the pitch.

'Raskin irreplaceable, sign Vardy & bring back Cerny'
We asked for your views on what Rangers head coach Russell Martin needs this summer in the transfer what some of you said:Arran: Would be very fun to see Jamie Vardy come, of course they're only rumours though. More English league players! As big as my loyalty to the SPFL is, I still think we should be taking advantage of Russell Martin's links and connections to the English leagues. They have so much money and are able to make so many good investments all the time, it'd be nice to see some of those good investments come to Spend £9m and bring Vaclav Cerny back in, we know his quality and fit with the club. Build the team around him, Nicolas Raskin and Mohamed Diomande. I'm actually pro-Cyriel Dessers, but if money is being offered take it and sign an established striker. We missed a trick with the knowledge and influence Davide Ancelotti would have had bringing in upcoming stars, but I'll back Martin for now and hope for smart business!Billy: Rangers should definitely keep Raskin and Dessers. Let Robin Propper go and get someone solid beside John Souttar. We're good between the sticks and for full-backs. Wide men needed to provide opportunities for The defence needs to be toughened up as a priority, Jack Butland's frailties on crosses and his slack passing out from the back were exposed and Liam Kelly was far from convincing as a replacement, no doubt lack of confidence in the goalkeeper led to near enough blind panic by the defenders in clearing balls and defending corners. Recruit tough, no-nonsense defenders and build from The centre of defence has to be the priority. Build from the back. With the amount of work needing done to the squad, either, or both of, Raskin and Hamza Igamane will have to be sold to generate the necessary funds. Massive summer ahead and we need to get a move on with pre-season starting next We need a keeper, left-sided centre-half, right and left full-backs, right and left wingers and a centre-forward, plus squad players who enhance the bench with academy players given Raskin at this time is irreplaceable. He is getting better game by game and is establishing himself in the Belgium team. We should do everything to keep him and cash in on him this time next year when his stock rises even further. We need to drastically improve our defence, and need four or five new signings for the starting XI. Right now bringing in squad players just isn't what we need.

Celtic flop could be joined by ex-teammate after Euro move
Kenny spent six months on loan at the Hoops during the 2021 season and it was an unsuccessful spell, with Rangers running away with the title and the Englishman failing to impress. Overall, he made 16 appearances in the green and white during what was a massively underwhelming campaign, the only time since 2010 the club haven't finished top of the league. This was despite Kenny have previously had a productive loan with Schalke and it was a return to Germany that helped kickstart his career again. Read more: He was a regular in the Bundesliga during his first season and also in the second tier in the two campaigns that followe. But, with his contract at an end, he will now head to Greece for a new adventure. The 28-year-old could be joined by former Hoops teammate Greg Taylor. The left-back is still weighing up PAOK's offer. He was believed to be close to joining them last week but Danish giants Copenhagen are reportedly trying to hijack that move.
