HEART of Midlothian Coach Stephen Frail is hopeful of keeping Ghana midfielder Laryea Kingston beyond the January transfer window after the player continues to be linked with a host of Premiership clubs including Bolton Wanderers and Newcastle United. "I hope no key players will be sold," he said. "I think we're capable of mounting a challenge if we get consistency of results. We're in the process of getting targets. In any squad, we have ideas where we want to strengthen. We've got players playing at a level where we make sure we are bringing in players who will enhance the squad.” He continued "We've got a month and a bit, but we need to be ready for players going out and maybe some coming in. In saying that, I hope first-team players like Laryea Kington will not be sold in January.” Laryea netted for Hearts before scoring an own goal during last Sunday's 1-1 draw with Gretna in the Scottish Premier League.
