Robbie Neilson has suggested Craig Gordon will get a statue outside Tynecastle because of his performances for the club.
The Hearts goalkeeper has been excellent since returning to the club after leaving Celtic in the summer of 2020.
He continued that during the penalty shootout against Livingston at the weekend as he helped his side into the quarter final of the Scottish Cup.
And Neilson reckons if he keeps it up he'll be set for a permanent reward outside the club's stadium when he retires because of how important he has been to the club.
He's been a big part of their form this season and Neilson insists he's always confident of him saving a penalty.
He said: "He's Craig Gordon, isn't he? If he keeps going the way he is there will be a statue here eventually for him.
"He is different class, if I was an opposition player stepping up to take a penalty I'd be worried, he is so big, so agile.
"He also reads the game so well, and he's always going to get near the ball."
Gordon has made 64 appearances since returning to the club as well as 176 during his first spell.
