Young Hearts winger Andrew Driver claims he has not been distracted by interest in his services from Burnley.

The Clarets have already had two summer offers for the promising 20-year-old rejected by the Tynecastle outfit.

Turf Moor boss Owen Coyle claims he will not be making a fresh approach for Driver's services, with reports that Hearts are holding out for a seven-figure fee.

And Driver is keen to focus his attentions on the forthcoming SPL season after returning to pre-season training.

Speculation

He told the club's official website: "The speculation about Burnley hasn't affected me.

"I haven't heard anything from the club or anyone else so just need to get my head down and keep working hard and get on with it.

"I'm still only 20, have loads of improving to do and am looking forward to getting back playing again after missing the last bit of last season through injury.

"I am a Hearts player and I want to concentrate on getting fit for the new season. I want to do the best I can in my career and want to improve as much as I can. If I can do that, then maybe the chance will come to play in England.

"Obviously it is a boost that someone is interested and shows I'm maybe doing something right but I just want to keep improving as a footballer."
