Hearts' striker Claudio Braga has shared his thoughts on his future, stating that every player has their own ambitions. Following a remarkable first season with the Jambos, which earned him the PFA Scotland Player of the Year award, Braga has attracted significant attention.
However, the 26-year-old Portuguese forward remains focused on the upcoming season. In an interview with Sky Sports News, Braga said, "As a professional, it's essential to avoid distractions and focus on giving your best." He added that any discussions regarding his future are being handled by his agents. Braga emphasized that he has a contract with Heart of Midlothian and would only consider leaving if it benefits both him and the club. Meanwhile, new Hearts head coach Wouter Vrancken has advised his players to put the previous season's title miss behind them and concentrate on the next challenge.
Vrancken, who took charge last month, believes that in sports, it's crucial to look forward and channel energy into upcoming events. Hearts are set to face Aberdeen in their season opener, and Vrancken is confident that his team has a good chance of securing a win. The Belgian coach has been analyzing Aberdeen's games and is aware of the challenges they pose. With several influential players having left Tynecastle Park, including captain Lawrence Shankland and midfielder Cammy Devlin, Vrancken is focused on the players currently at his disposal.
He has welcomed ten new players to the club and has made the loan moves of Stuart Findlay and Rogers Mato permanent.
