We’re delighted to announce the signing of 18-year-old left-back Leon Watson on loan from Heart of Midlothian until the end of the season.
Leon, also known as Leo, joined the Tynecastle side from Bonnyrigg Rose at Under 11 level, progressing through the ranks before spending the first half of this season on loan at Stirling Albion in League Two. Leo has been capped for Scotland at Under 19 (2 caps), Under 17 (3 caps) and Under 16 level (3 caps), most recently featuring for the Under 19s in their November double header against Armenia and Croatia.
