The Heart of Midlothian Football Club, fondly known as Hearts, is a venerable outfit with roots dating back to 1874. The stoic Tynecastle Park, nestled in the heart of Scotland, is where they ardently spar with their opponents - a venue they've made their fortress since inception.
As reported by Transfermarkt, the current market value of the Hearts' squad hovers somewhere around £19m - a testament to the inherent talent that bolsters their ranks.
Characterised by a fine mix of experience and brisk youthfulness, the team comprises 28 players. On average, they're a group of spry lads in their late twenties - the ripe age of 27 to be precise.
Hearts have not been idle this season and are showing intent in various competitive scenarios. Their tenacious pursuit of glory is evident in their stellar performance in the Premiership, where they browbeat their rivals to claim the top spot. Additionally, their journey in the compelling drama of the League Cup stopped at the Second Round. Their quest for the Scottish Cup halted abruptly in the Fourth Round, but not before they displayed their footballing mettle.
