Anthony McDonald has followed the lead of fellow teenager Harry Cochrane by penning a new three-year deal with Hearts.

The extension ties the 17-year-old to the Tynecastle outfit until 2021.

On Thursday, 16-year-old prospect Cochrane put pen to paper on a three-year deal of his own with the Jam Tarts.

McDonald burst onto the scene when he set up two goals as Hearts beat Dundee 2-0 in his first start for Craig Levein's side.

Since then the talented playmaker has went on to make 11 first-team appearances.

He is a part of Scotland's youth set up, making his bow for the national team's Under 17s in March.
