Tynecastle management have watched the 17-year-old and will continue to keep an eye on him following a promising breakthrough at Stark’s Park in which he has scored four goals in 17 appearances - 11 as a starter - since making his debut as a 16-year-old in February.

Bowie has played predominantly out wide for Rovers but is expected to develop into a central striker.

A boyhood Raith fan, he was rewarded with a new contract in the summer which commits him to his hometown club until 2022.
