Scottish goalkeeper Craig Gordon remains at Hearts as of early 2026, both as a squad member and as an active Scotland international, despite not having played for the club this season.[1][2]
Hearts are leading the Scottish Premiership, with Alexander Schwolow established as first‑choice keeper and Gordon sitting as backup. Coach Derek McInnes has said there have been no loan approaches for Gordon and stressed that he is “too important” for the squad, valuing his experience and readiness to step in if needed.[2][1]
Gordon has featured for Scotland in the latest World Cup qualifying fixtures, including matches against Greece and Denmark, which helped keep him match‑sharp even though he has not appeared competitively for Hearts yet this term. He has also indicated he is training well and focused on pushing for game time at Hearts rather than forcing a move, even with World Cup‑bound international ambitions.[1][2]
The 43-year-old has not made a competitive appearance for Hearts this season; he started Scotlands World Cup qualifiers against Greece and Denmark; Hearts are three points clear at top of Scottish Premiership; watch Dundee vs Hearts on Sunday, live on Sky Sports from 1pm
