Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo says he has discussed transfer targets with majority shareholder Vladimir Romanov.

The Romanian-born coach told Hearts World: "We've discussed possibilities and have a lot of names."

Laszlo, 44, is expected to make Uganda midfielder David Obua his first signing - if he is granted a work permit.

The manager, who was appointed at Tynecastle on 11 July after succeeding Stevie Frail, said he was eager to add some fresh blood to the squad.
