Hearts and Aberdeen braced for transfer tussle as Premiership rivals eye Iraq winger
The two clubs have a winger who is impressing in Norway on their radar and they could battle it out for the star Stromsgodset winger Marko Farji is on Hearts' transfer radar - with Scottish Premiership rivals Aberdeen also showing interest. The Jambos are looking to strengthen their attacking options under new boss Derek McInnes and Record Sport revealed they were in for Claudio Braga, while Islam Chesnokov is another who looks set for Gorgie. Farji has turned out for his club 11 times so far this term and despite their struggles - sit 14th in the Norwegian Eliteserien with just two wins from nine - the playmaker has seven goals and three assists in all competitions. Fellow target Braga also plies his trade in Norway in the second division with Aaelsund which appears to signal a desire from the recruitment staff to venture into new territories. Farji, who has been capped twice for Iraq, is under contract with Stromsgodset until 2026 and a six-figure fee would likely be enough to get a deal done. The creative talent is versatile and while he most often operates as a left-winger, he can also play in an attacking midfield position or on the right-flank. With Daniel Arzani's future still up in the air amid interest from Tynecastle, the Australian has suitors in Asia and across Europe so Farji could be an alternative to the ex- Celtic man. It comes as they continue to push for a deal for Stuart Findlay at the back as well as Uchenna Ogundu up top.
