Former Hearts striker Kyle Lafferty could be on the move again, according to reports in Romania. The striker, who has played for numerous, is set to join Sepsi, ProSport reports.
Sepsi are currently in fourth place in the top division in Romania, and should Lafferty move there he would be making a swift return to football after leaving Reggina in January.
Could be back in football soon
The report from Romania claims that the player has agreed terms to join Sepsi, so he could be back in football very soon.
The 33-year-old forward has had a nomadic footballing career, which has seen him play in Scotland, England, Italy, Switzerland, Norway and Turkey.
Probably his biggest success came in his first spell with Rangers, where he helped them win three league titles. However, he also did very well with Palermo, who he won the Serie B title with in 2014.
Had one fine full season at Tynecastle
His lone full season with Hearts was also a highpoint. He scored 19 goals, finishing up as the club’s top scorer in 2017/18. That record won him a move back to Rangers, that didn’t work out, and he found himself on the move once more.
Hearts brought in some strikers during the January window, so the chances of the player making a return to Tynecastle seemed remote. He probably could have still done a job for Hearts, but perhaps the player wasn’t on Robbie Neilson’s radar.
However, it would not be a shock to see the player return to Scotland at some stage of his career. Would that mean return to Hearts? Probably not, but you can never tell in football.
