Ghanaian youngster Cletus Nombil is on trials with Scottish giants Heart of Midlothian as he attempts to win a deal with the Jambos.

Hearts ran the rule over the 18 year old during Saurday’s 2-1 defeat in a closed door match to Queen of the South.

The winger played on the left hand side for a Hearts side made up from a mixture of first team players and youngsters.


Steven Dobbie netted a double for the Doonhamers before Chris Hamilton’s late header reduced the deficit for the Jambos.

Nombil, plays for Dreams FC in Ghana, but has been on trial in Europe on recent weeks.

He featured for Swedish side AIK Stockholm against New York City and a friendly held in Abu Dhabi last month, coming off the bench during the second half.

He had been training in the Swedish capital for a month but was not offered a contract.
