Ryan Stevenson believes Hearts' capture of Robert Snodgrass will prove to be one of the best transfer deals this season.
Robbie Neilson landed the vastly experienced midfielder on a free earlier this year in what has been labelled as 'great business'. His value on the pitch is just as big off it with Stevenson describing the 35-year-old as the 'heart and soul' of the dressing room.
The former Scotland international will have a major role in how the Jambos' season ends up from here. They currently sit fourth in the league - just one point behind Aberdeen with a game in hand as they bid to finish best of the rest behind Celtic and Rangers once again and get another European adventure secured after a group stage campaign in the Europa Conference League this term. Hearts' return to Premiership action produced what Stevenson has described as a 'great performance' with the capital club running out 3-1 winners against Kilmarnock.
