هارتس يشتري المهاجم "المباشر" غيندووز من بيرشوت

Hearts have completed the signing of "exciting, direct attacker" Sabri Guendouz from Belgian second-tier club Beerschot for an undisclosed fee.

The 26-year-old Frenchman has signed a contract until summer 2029.

Guendouz started his career with Valenciennes in the French third tier before moving to Guingamp in 2020 and, after promotion from the B team, helped them to the promotion play-offs and a Coupe de France quarter-final.

"Last season, he made the move to Belgium where he became Beerschot's creative outlet with 10 goal contributions," Hearts say on their website.

Guendouz was also their main goal assist provider, most active dribbler and winner of penalties as Beerschot finished third but missed out on promotion after being edged out in their play-off final.

He becomes Hearts sixth signing of the summer as they rebuild the squad that came runners-up in the Scottish Premiership last season.
