Craig Halkett reveals Hearts tears after crushing physio phone call piled on the injury misery
07.02.2023 - 11:39 / dailyrecord.co.uk
Craig Halkett admits he burst into tears when he was told his campaign was over.
The Hearts defender won’t be back in action until next season after injuring his cruciate knee ligament on Christmas Eve. Halkett had to be replaced early during a 2-2 draw at Dundee United after an innocuous coming together with Glenn Middleton as he shepherded the ball out for a goal kick.
Scans revealed the extent of the damage, which came as a crushing blow to Halkett, who had already missed a good chunk of the season after a hamstring injury. The 27-year-old went under the knife in the summer following Hearts’ Scottish Cup final defeat to Rangers, which meant he was playing catch up over pre-season.

“In the game at Tannadice, I was just shielding the ball and I felt a slight wobble in my knee. It wasn’t agony or anything like it, but I knew something wasn’t right, like I had hyperextended it. It was a movement I would do plenty of times in a game.
“So I’d never have imagined, at any point, that I would be facing nine months out because of my cruciate. The week after I got the scan back, I was in the car when the physio called to tell me the season was over.
“I burst into tears and it took a few days to sink in because I’ve never had a serious injury like this before. It had been stop-start,
