Jordan McGhee (born 24 July 1996)[4] is a Scottish professional footballer who plays for Heart of Midlothian in the Scottish Premiership as a defender.

Club career

Heart of Midlothian

McGhee signed for Heart of Midlothian (Hearts) in 2007, having previously played for Claremont.[5] In July 2012, he signed a three-year professional contract, tying him to the club until 2015.[5] A member of the club's under-20 squad[6] McGhee made his first team debut[7] aged 16,[8] on 4 May 2013, coming on as an 86th-minute substitute at Tynecastle in a Scottish Premier League match against St Mirren, replacing Mehdi Taouil in a 3–0 win.[9] The following season on 24 August 2013, in only his second substitute appearance,[10] he scored his first professional goal,[11] an 88th-minute winner in a 2–1 win over Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership.[12] The following week he made his first start against Inverness Caledonian Thistle, in a 2–0 defeat.[13]

In January 2015, McGhee signed a contract with Hearts that is due to run until the end of the 2016–17 season.[14] Ipswich Town made two offers of around £250,000 for McGhee in August 2015, but these were both rejected by Hearts.[15] In January 2016 McGhee almost moved to Middlesbrough on loan but the move collapsed after paperwork failed to be completed in time.[16]

International career

McGhee earned caps at under-15, under-16 and under-18 level before earning a call up to the Scotland under-21 squad aged just 17 after some impressive performances for Hearts.

After establishing himself as a regular at centre back alongside Stuart Findlay, he captained the Scotland under-21 side for the first time in a friendly against Switzerland on 18 November 2014 which ended in a 1–1 draw.[17]
