Coventry table �1m bid for Driver

Hearts winger Andy Driver

Coventry City have offered Hearts �1m for winger Andrew Driver, the only concrete offer so far for the player.

However, the Tynecastle side are likely to reject the offer from the Sky Blues, as they hold out for an increased fee or possibly a player in exchange.

Earlier this week, Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo advised Driver to consider any move carefully, urging him to ensure he signs for a club where he can develop.

The 21-year-old is also attracting interest from Sheffield Wednesday.

The Owls and Coventry, however, may have to compete with Dynamo Kiev, Rangers, Everton, Bolton and Burnley, who have all been linked with signing the talented winger, who has been at Hearts since 2003.

The Turf Moor club failed with two summer offers of more than �500,000 for the Oldham-born winger, who has come through the Tynecastle youth system.

Following an intense period of transfer speculation, Driver signed a five-year extension to his contract in August and has scored three goals this season.
