Hearts goalkeeper Craig Gordon insists he will not hand in a transfer request as he is happy at Tynecastle.

The Scotland international has been continually linked with an exit throughout the summer with Sunderland tabling an £5million offer for his services.

Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov knocked back the bid and Gordon claims he is happy to remain in Edinburgh for the time being.

"I'm not unhappy at Hearts," he told the Daily Record.

"I don't think it will come to the stage where I ever hand in a transfer request.

"Communication between me and the club has been fine and as good between Mr Romanov and me as it has been in the last three years. If I wanted to speak to Mr Romanov I'm sure he would listen.

"It's his decision to accept an amount of money offered or not. Then, later, if he did accept, it would be up to me to decide whether or not I wanted to move to that club.

"I'm quite laid back about it all. The time will come when I leave this club. It might be now or six months down the line, 12 months or five years. Who knows?"
