Our man has his say on the swirling rumours surrounding Hearts' leader and talisman.
I know the striker has been linked with clubs in England and Saudi Arabia but the Jambos can’t afford to let him go. He netted 28 goals last season and already has four goals in five games in this campaign. He’s a big part of this team. Shankland’s goal in Trondheim then the leveller at Tynecastle against Rosenborg were massive in helping Hearts get through in the Europa Conference League.
He is also club captain and the way he lives his life on and off the park he is a role model for all the younger boys and fans. It’s vital we do try and keep him. When you get linked with clubs from Saudi Arabia it can be a bit daunting with the finances they have on offer. They can blow everybody out of the water.
What Hearts did on Thursday night was amazing. What they did in both legs over Rosenborg was amazing, especially going the goal down at Tynecastle and then coming back! They were outstanding. Everyone will be excited but as players you have to enjoy the experience. I’m half-expecting Hearts to win but at the same time it’s Europe and it’s always going to be difficult.
It’s a massive game for everyone, including the fans. That is where Hearts should be, in Europe and competing in these massive games. It’s what the club, the players and the fans want. It’s where they want to be every year and to build on these occasions.
