SNS GroupHearts have revealed that Nathaniel Atkinson has left the club to join Melbourne City.
The 25-year-old has returned to his former club after falling out of the first team picture at Tynecastle.
Atkinson moved to Hearts in 2022 and went on to make 72 appearances for the club, scoring three times.
The Australia international will now look to regain regular first team football at the club where he made his name.
Speaking to Melbourne City’s official website, Atkinson said: “I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to come back to Melbourne City, a place that feels like home to me.
“My time at Hearts was a fantastic experience, but I’m excited to be back where it all started and contribute to the team’s future success.
“I’ve grown a lot as a player and as a person, and I can’t wait to bring that experience to the pitch. I’ve missed the incredible support of the City fans, and I can’t wait to run out at AAMI Park again this season.”
