Jim Jefferies is looking for more patience from Hearts fans as he continues his search for a strike-partner to link up with Kevin Kyle. Jefferies has somebody in mind but can't say who it is as he is still under contract with another club. However, the former Kilmarnock manager is hopeful of adding to his strike options before the summer transfer window closes.
Jefferies said: "I've got somebody in mind, I've had him in mind for a wee while. He is at another club but he knows of our interest. That's something which may not be done for the start of the season. It might happen before the transfer window closes. If we start the season and he feels a change is needed then we might be in with a shout of getting him. I would like to get another striker and I'd like to get another midfield player," he added. We have midfielders who can do the defensive side of things. What we need is somebody who likes to get beyond the strikers, a different type to what we've got."
