He has impressed at Alloa so far, helping them win all four Premier Sports Cup group matches and their first two league games. Saturday's Premier Sports Cup last-16 defeat against Rangers at Ibrox was their first of the new season.

'20-year-old Liam is currently on loan at William Hill League One side Alloa Athletic, where he's earning rave reviews. An ever-present in their Premier Sports Cup group stage campaign, which saw them top their section with four wins from four, Liam also helped the Wasps to wins in both of their opening League One fixtures. He put in another impressive performance when Alloa ran Rangers close in last weekend's 4-2 Premier Sports Cup defeat at Ibrox. 'The Hearts Academy graduate was a standout performer for East Fife in their promotion push to League One last season, keeping 14 clean sheets before being named East Fife's Young Player of the Year and voted into the PFA Scotland Team of the Season for League Two. 'Standing at a towering 6ft 5in, Liam has also added Scotland youth caps to his CV and was this year named in the Scotland U21 squad. He continues to train with Derek McInnes' first team whilst at the part-time Wasps.'

Injuries to Craig Gordon and Ryan Fulton leave 33-year-old Clark as the only experienced keeper in head coach Derek McInnes' squad. Harry Stone, 23, is there as cover but Hearts would like to loan him out. Injuries have so far prevented them doing so. Transfer enquiries have been made for a number of different goalkeepers in England and abroad, including the Everton reserve Harry Tyrer. He is also 23 and has plenty experience of the English Football League after loan spells at Chester, Chesterfield and Blackpool. He is one of many names on Hearts' shortlist as they look to recruit a new keeper before the transfer window closes on 1 September. The club will not rush into a move for the sake of it and are determined to do due diligence on any prospective new signing.
