Hearts star OUT for season with torn ACL after suffering major blow on eve of Trabzonspor Euro clash

Hearts left-back Harry Milne is feared to be sidelined for the remainder of the season after suffering a torn ACL. The 29-year-old sustained the injury at Papara Park on October 21 while training ahead of Hearts' Europa Conference League match against Trabzonspor. Milne left the stadium on crutches and was immediately ruled out of the contest, with scans scheduled to assess the full damage.

The setback adds to a severe injury crisis for Hearts manager Wouter Vrancken. The Tynecastle side is already missing Tom Renaud, Blair Spittal, record signing Ageu, and Craig Halkett, alongside Stuart Findlay, Oisin McEntee, and Laurent Mendy. Milne's absence leaves Stephen Kingsley, who is working back to full fitness, as the club's only active left-back.
