Hearts contracts: when each and every first team player's deal at Tynecastle will expire

Steven Naismith prepares for the upcoming January transfer window as stars hope to secure contract extensions

Steven Naismith has led his side to a fourth place position as the international break gets underway with Scotland facing Georgia and Norway in their remaining European qualifying fixtures.

This has been no small feat for a side plagued with several injury concerns. Hearts have been without their club captain Craig Gordon for nearly a year as the goalkeeper continues to recover from a severe leg-break while Craig Halkett is nearing his return from an ACL injury.
