FROM the Firth of Forth to the Bay of Bengal.
It’s a road less-travelled, but the one that Jason Cummings has truly lapped up ever since his acrimonious exit from Scottish football.

Hannah said Dubai was their “best holiday yet”
The couple have since gone on a trip to Thailand
The former Hibs and Rangers striker left Dundee under a cloud of controversy after he was sent home from training following a surprise guest appearance at an Open Goal Live event in December 2021.
He subsequently joined Central Coast Mariners in Australia and has never looked back.
He found form Down Under and even won himself a call-up to the Australian national team (whom he qualifies for through his mother) and represented the Socceroos at the World Cup in Qatar.
It all culminated in tears – happy ones – as he won the league with Mariners and planted a kiss on his partner in the crowd after more heroics in the A-League Grand Final.

Since then, the 28-year-old has moved to India with other half Hannah Doig, and he is now the best-paid player in the Indian Super League.
He was slammed for being unfit on his debut for new club Mohun Bagan Super Giant but has racked up an impressive eight goals in 13 games now that he’s up and running in West Bengal.
In between, he and Hannah have enjoyed exploring what Australia and India have to offer, not to mention a few tourist hot spots in between.

The couple have also visited Dubai and Thailand in their time off.
In Dubai they hit the heights of the Aura Skypool, relaxed on Kyma Beach and sampled the DJ and party scenes.
After helping his side lift the Durand Cup with a sub appearance in the final, which ended in a 1-0 win over rivals East Bengal, Cummings headed from Kolkata to Thailand and quoted The Hangover as he celebrated the trophy success in style.

He and Hannah also spent time on the Phi Phi Islands and in Bangkok during their holiday in Thailand, with the pair spotted feeding monkeys and taking part in some snorkelling.
They also took in the famously raucous nightlife scene of Pa Tong Beach on the west coast of Phuket Island.
Cummings hasn’t been called up to the current Australia squad, though ex-Hibs team mate Martin Boyle does make it in for the 2026 World Cup qualifiers against Bangladesh and Palestine.
Boyle’s fellow Hibs star Lewis Miller has also been included, alongside Hearts star Kye Rowles, St Mirren‘s Keanu Baccus and Ryan Strain and former Celtic and Ross County midfielder Jackson Irvine.
You can see why the couple loved the views from their Dubai trip
