Good catch by The Culture Vulture on Twitter for finding this. Sky Sports is reporting that Hearts Winger Sam Nicholson has travelled stateside to talk with Minnesota United.
The 22-year-old winger is out of contract at Hearts and will not require a transfer fee. We reported that the Loons were possibly interested in the young Scottish player last week, but it appears that interest continues to grow.
Nicholson appeared 23 times for Hearts this year, but had some injury problems. He is a product of their academy and made his first team debut at age 18.
