Scotland star Lawrence Shankland is happy at Hearts and unaware of any pending Saudi Arabian interest. The Jambos skipper is the latest to be linked with a big-money move to the Middle East. The on-form frontman hit an impressive 28 goals for Hearts last season and is seen as one of their prize assets. Shankland’s representatives recently moved fellow Scotland cap Jack Hendry to Al-Ettifaq from Club Brugge for big-money. Hearts technical director Stevie Naismith has a close relationship with Brighton director of football David Weir, as they were teammates together at Rangers.
