After signing a new two-year contract at Everton in the summer, Heath joined League Two side Accrington for the 2025/26 season.
The hope was that he would play regularly and get himself used to men’s football. And with 28 appearances under his belt so far, he has certainly done that.
And now, a couple of clubs in the division above are on his tail.

Heath opted to stay at Accrington in January rather than change clubs, and it’s stated that he was keen to play out the rest of the campaign at Wham Stadium.
Huddersfield are said to ‘love’ the idea of snapping up Heath next season, while Reading are plotting a similar swoop.
Heath has impressed
It remains to be seen what Everton will decide to do with Heath next season, as clearly he has shown he’s more than good enough for League Two.
League One clubs are sniffing around, but perhaps Everton will seek to facilitate a Championship move to try and develop him quicker.
Undoubtedly Heath has caught the eye this season, with Accrington manager John Doolan previously branding him ‘quality’.

Doolan also said of Heath: “He’s a top player. We brought top players to the club. (Heath) is an unbelievable talent.
“To see what teams are doing to him now; doubling up, trebling up, they trebled up on him on Saturday.
“He’s getting asked loads of questions… He’s got answers. He’s scoring goals and assisting. He’s a constant threat and he’s only going to get better. He’s an unbelievable talent.”
Heath picked up the November Player of the Month award at Accrington which was a highlight of his spell, and with six goals and four assists in 28 appearances, the stint has most definitely been a success.
