Hearts have made their first signing of the Summer.
Winger Alan Forrest has joined the Tynecastle side from Livingston.
The 25-year-old will sign a two-year-deal on the expiry of his contract with Livi.
Last season he racked up seven goals and four assists.
Manager Robbie Neilson told the club website: "We're delighted to get Alan on board. We watched his performances for Livingston last season and were really impressed. His development over the last 18 months has been excellent, and we knew we wanted him pretty quickly.
"He's quick, direct, and will offer a real threat going forward. Very pleased to have him here."
Sporting Director Joe Savage added: "We're delighted. He was one of the main targets that we had when the campaign finished. We're respectful of other clubs, so we didn't want to speak to Alan before the season had concluded.
"Livingston granted us permission to speak and we had a chat with Alan after his holiday. We're delighted to get it signed and sealed, because we think he's going to be a good player for us."
