Manager Steve Naismith is expecting big things from the versatile defender.

“It’s another really positive bit of news to get Daniel in as a Hearts player,” Naismith told the club’s website.

“He’s versatile, has physicality and also a calmness in possession. He’s willing to take the ball under pressure and that’s a big part of the way we want our defenders to play.

“What’s really impressed me is his desire to progress his career. He’s not comfortable just standing still in a safe environment, he wants to forge a career and advance to a higher level, and I expect him to do that with Hearts.”
