David Templeton signs new three-year Hearts deal
The 21-year-old, who has scored twice in nine appearances for the first team this season, told Hearts News: "I am very happy at Hearts. It is a good club for young players to be at and I'm learning all the time here.
"It didn't take long to make my decision once the club got in touch and I'm looking forward to spending the next few years of my career at Tynecastle."

Hide AdTempleton, who joined Hearts from Stenhousemuir in January 2007 and spent three months on loan at Raith in early 2008, is the latest youngster to commit his future to the club.
Paul Mulrooney, Conrad Balatoni, Danny Thomson, Michael Deland and John Wood all agreed new deals earlier this season.
Manager Jim Jefferies said: "David is a talented young lad, although he has been hampered a bit by injury. He now has the platform to go on and show what he can do on a consistent level.
"As has been shown in recent weeks, we have a lot of good young players at the club, but David has to keep working hard like everyone else and maintain the standards he has set."
