Elliot was a big hit during his loan period at Livingston

Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo is happy to see Calum Elliot returning from his loan spell at Livingston.

The 22-year-old striker scored 11 goals in 13 appearances for the West Lothian First Division side.

"He has scored a lot of goals and we need to improve our own goal-scoring, so it was important that he came back," Laszlo told the club website.

"He is rightly very confident after his time at Livingston and this can only be good news for Hearts."

Elliot, who is out of contract in the summer, was a target for Inverness and MK Dons at the start of the season but plumped for a temporary move to Almondvale.

The former Scotland U-21 international has scored 10 goals in 77 appearances for Hearts and had a loan spell with Motherwell during the 2006/07 season.
