No Hearts move for Hartley
Published: 24th June 2010
Bristol City have denied reports midfielder Paul Hartley has been transfer-listed.
The 33-year-old Scotland international, who joined in July 2009 following his release from Celtic, has been linked with a summer move to his former club Hearts.
However, City chief executive Colin Sexstone has dismissed the rumours Hartley, who has a year left on his contract, has been made available for transfer and denied there has been any contact between the Ashton Gate club and the Jambos regarding the player.
He told the club's official website: "I'm not sure where these stories come from but people are playing with words and getting it wrong.
"There has been absolutely no dialogue between Bristol City and Hearts and I can say categorically that Paul is not on the transfer list. He remains an important member of the squad."
