Craig Gordon: Hearts in talks with Scotland & Celtic goalkeeper
- Published
Gordon is weighing up offers from Hearts and Celtic, and has also spoken with St Mirren
Hearts have offered goalkeeper Craig Gordon a two-year deal to return to the club.
The out-of-contract 37-year-old has an offer to remain with Celtic, but on much reduced terms.
St Mirren have previously spoken to Gordon about signing, and he wants assurances about playing regularly.
He has not played for Celtic since December, and did not feature in the league last season.
Gordon began his career with Hearts, making 100 appearances for the club before signing for Sunderland in 2007.
During that spell he played alongside Robbie Neilson, who was appointed as Hearts head coach for the second time on Sunday.
'So many plusses to bringing him back' - analysis
Former Hearts defender Steven Pressley on BBC Scotland's Scottish Football podcast
I was fortunate to play with Craig and he was one of the best keepers I've seen in my time in football. He was an exceptional young goalkeeper who could make saves beyond belief.
He then suffered a horrendous knee injury which he showed great character to come back from.
He still has a lot to offer and is the right type, a good leader, and has the experience required. There are so many plusses to taking Craig back to Hearts.
