Hearts told the Yan Dhanda transfer rules by Ross County as January switch to Tynecastle dealt blow

Ross County have told Hearts they don’t want to lose Yan Dhanda in January.

The Jambos have expressed an interested in County ’s playmaker. There have been talks between the two clubs but Hearts aren’t prepared to pay a significant fee and County don’t want to sell. The Tynecastle club can wait and sign Dhanda on a pre-contract and take him to the capital on a free in the summer.

County boss Adams is prepared to take that gamble knowing Dhanda could be a key figure in getting them up the Scottish Premiership table. The situation is unlikely to change unless Hearts can free up cash in the coming weeks. The 25-year-old arrived from Swansea City at the start of last season.
