Hearts fullback Mitchell confident Man Utd boss Mourinho watching

Hearts fullback Demi Mitchell feels he has the support of Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho.

Mitchell is on-loan at the Jambos from Manchester United.

He told The Sun: “He was really positive and said Hearts was a good club and it was a good opportunity for me.

“United are watching all the games which is great as you don't want to be left alone when you are out on loan.

“People are there to offer you help and after every game someone will ring or text with small bits of advice on how you are playing or what you might have done differently in a situation.

“They're happy and it's good for me that I'm playing every game.

“It restores faith in you. I'm not that young anymore and hopefully I can show what I can do.

“It's expected to be hard at Manchester United and other top clubs where young players come through.

“They are some of the best clubs in the world and it is hard to break in - if it wasn't everyone would do it.

“My aim is to come to Hearts and play as many as possible - achieve something the club hasn't done in a while I've not done before like winning the title."
