Austrian defender Michael Steinwender has joined Hearts from Varnamo on a deal that runs until the summer of 2028.

The 24-year-old previously played for SV Mattersburg, St Polten and TSV Hartburg before moving to Sweden last year. Steinwender is nearing 200 senior appearances at club level.

He follows forward Elton Kabangu and defender Jamie McCart in joining Hearts in January.

“We’re really delighted to get this deal for Michael completed as it’s taken a lot of hard work from everyone at the club these past few months to bring him to Hearts,” head coach Neil Critchley told the club website.

“He is someone we have identified that we believe has all the attributes to be a success in the Scottish Premiership and in Europe.

“He already has several seasons of experience in Austria and Sweden and at the age of 24 he has the potential to develop further in his career.”
