It looks like Sam Nicholson will be a Loon after all.
The Edinburgh News is reporting that the 22-year-old is set to sign a 2-and-a-half-year contract with Minnesota United this weekend.
Nicholson will be joining MNUFC over offers from England and offers to stay in Scotland. Reports said that Glasgow giants, Rangers FC, were interested, but Nicholson has made his decision.
Because the Hearts Academy product is joining an American side, Hearts will receive no compensation. But, Nicholson has requested that a sell-on clause be added to his MNUFC contract so that in the event that the Loons sell him, Hearts will see some benefit as well.
