League Cup final: Mullen out of Hearts squad
HEARTS have confirmed that right-back Fraser Mullen will miss Sunday’s League Cup final after being ruled out for the season with a broken foot.
Scans yesterday showed a fracture in the foot which Mullen injured during Sunday’s 0-0 derby draw with Hibernian.
The 19-year-old, who made his debut in the Scottish Communities League Cup semi-final win over Inverness, had been in line to play in Sunday’s Hampden clash against St Mirren.
