West Ham's McCallum links up Hearts

West Ham United striker Paul McCallum has joined Scottish Premier League strugglers Heart of Midlothian.

The 20-year old has arrived at Tynecastle on loan for the remainder of the season as a replacement for Adam King who joined Swansea City for £200,000 earlier this week.

Hearts' current administration issues only allow them to sign players on a 'one in, one out' and the Edinburgh club was thrilled to see the Scottish Professional Football League allow them to conclude the deal so quickly.

"I am grateful to the SPFL for the speed and fairness of this decision which allows Adam King to be swiftly replaced with Paul," said Hearts administrator Bryan Jackson.
