Michael Smith has made it clear he would LOVE to stay at Hearts and sort out his future but concedes the decision is not down to him.
The 34-year-old is out of contract in the summer at Tynecastle but no talks have yet taking place about what happens beyond this season. The Northern Ireland international will continue to give everything for the shirt and admits he would be delighted if he got a contract extension but says if it is time to move on, although he would be disappointed, he would take it on the chin.
Speaking about his contract situation at Hearts, the veteran defender said: “I haven’t spoken about it, no. If the gaffer fancies me here for another year, then so be it. Everyone knows I love it here and I would love to stay. If it’s not to be then it’s not to be. I will still give my all for the shirt. At my age and with a family, it would be nice to sort my future out sooner rather than later. At the end of the day, it isn’t my decision.
