Hearts goalkeeper Craig Gordon has ruled out a move away from Tynecastle Park this month, despite speculation about a potential loan deal to bolster his chances of starting for Scotland at the World Cup. The 43-year-old has been struggling for starts in the Scottish Premiership, but he's confident that Alexander Schwolow is not as solid as some think.
Gordon, who made only one appearance since returning from a shoulder injury, feels like he needs to be fit and ready to take his place back in the team. "I've been training well," he said. "I feel like I'm one step away from getting an opportunity here."
While there was talk about leaving Hearts on loan this month, Gordon insisted that it's not something that can be ruled out entirely. However, at the moment, he is focused on supporting the team and helping his side secure top spot in the league.
The 43-year-old has been open about how much fun it is to be part of the squad, particularly with their title ambitions on the line. "You get a little bit of jealousy when the boys are walking out there," Gordon said, hinting that he misses being on the pitch with his teammates.
