Laryea Kingston set to return to action

Hearts midfielder Laryea Kingston could make a dramatic return against Falkirk this weekend after a four-month absence.

The Ghana star has rejoined his team-mates in training this week after recovering from the foot injury picked up at the African Nations Cup.

Kingston hasn't played for Hearts since the 1-1 draw with Celtic on December 1, where he also got an ankle knock.

He was named in the Black Stars squad for the friendly against Mexico next week but he looks set to fit for the game.

Interim Hearts boss Stevie Frail said: " Laryea trained on Monday and looked OK and now he'll get a full week's training.

"We'll need to see if he has enough in the tank to feature at the weekend."

His call up for the Ghana's friendly against Mexico has generated a lot of criticism directed at coach Claude Le Roy.
