The Tynecastle manager and his coaching group have signed new contracts extending their tenure with the team until the summer of 2026. Along with Naismith, Gordon Forrest, Frankie McAvoy, and Paul Gallacher pledged their futures to the team.
Hearts chiefs had the option to extend the contracts of the four coaches by a year and elected to activate the clause. The decision to hand out new deals comes after the quartet played key roles in a “stellar league campaign”, semi-final appearances in both domestic cups and with the first team going from “strength to strength”. Hearts chief executive Andrew McKinlay told the club’s website: “I’m extremely pleased that we have secured Steven, Gordon, Frankie and Paul’s services for another year beyond this campaign.
The progress made on the pitch last season was there for all to see and because of that, we have a truly exciting year ahead of us. “By extending the coaching team’s contracts we are reiterating our trust in them and confirming our belief that they can continue to take the team on an upwards trajectory. “Good coaching teams aren’t always in abundance and other clubs are always on the lookout, so the club also has peace of mind in terms of protecting its assets. “Steven, Gordon, Frankie and Paul have started the team on a journey and I’m very much looking forward to seeing where they can take us.”
