## Resource

Hearts have pulled off a major coup by signing Laurent Mendy, the towering French midfielder who’s also a capable center-half and former captain of Forest Green Rovers. At 29, Mendy brings physicality and leadership to a squad currently in flux — especially after a gritty 1-0 win over Raith Rovers thanks to Rogers Mato. With head coach Wouter Vrancken still fine-tuning his lineup and making late changes for UEFA duty, Mendy’s arrival adds depth and versatility as Hearts look to regain form and fire back at Tynecastle.
