Transfer rumour latest

HUDDERSFIELD Town have been linked with Australian international Dean Heffernan.

Central Coast Mariners’ Heffernan will be loaned out to Town for the remainder of the season to help his Socceroo World Cup ambitions, according to Australia's Four Four Two magazine.

After missing Friday night's match with Gold Coast United due to injury, Heffernan, 29, flew into the UK on Sunday night.

Heffernan will join Melbourne Heart next season but is rumoured to see the move as ideal to keep his World Cup ambitions alive after a sensational game for the national team against Kuwait earlier this month.

In the Asian Cup qualifier, Heffernan scored for Australia and helped set up another for Luke Wilkshire in the 2-2 draw.
