Injured Hearts striker Hayford desperate to return for Phobians

Hearts striker Emmanuel Hayford is desperate to return the pitch after being sidelined with an injury. 

Hayford has been out with a knee injury for the last couple of weeks as the capital-based side continues to endure inconsistent display.

The 21-year-old admits he anxious to shake off the problem to stage a return to the rainbow colours.

“I got a slight knee injury, but I am treating it and I am getting better,” he said.

“It is painful to see your team lose games and you can't do anything about it.

“It pains me a lot that I cannot be there for the club.”
