South Korean star Ahn keen on Hearts move


South Korean international striker Ahn Jung-hwan is interested in a move to Hearts.

Jung-hwan, 30, is under contract with the German side MSV Duisburg but is available for around £500,000 following the club's relegation from the Bundesliga.
A move to Hearts could hinge on Valdas Ivanauskas getting the permanent coaching job. Ahn's agent, Tom Sanders, said: "I spoke with Valdas two or three times and he told me of his interest in Jung-hwan. But it is not clear if he will be head coach for next season and there is a lot of interest from other clubs."
