The representative of Laryea Kingston, says the Ghanaian international is attracting interest from a trio of English clubs.

Kingston, who plays for Scottish side, Hearts, has impressed in the SPL since moving from Russian outfit Terek Grozny in 2007 and he has been linked with Bolton and Portsmouth.

The midfielder had previously admitted that he would welcome the opportunity to move to the Premier League.

And the 28-year-old's agent, Ayrat Imamov, has now stated that three English teams - and one Spanish side - are tracking the player.

"I can confirm there is a lot of interest in Larry," Imamov, of Moscow-based Pro Sports management, told the Scotsman.

"Three English teams are watching him and one team from La Liga in Spain. These clubs are interested but I spoke to Larry and he is concentrating on this season."

However, Imamov insists that Kingston would happily remain at Tynecastle if Hearts are not prepared to sell.

"He is a Hearts player, he is happy there, he just wants to play and help his team," added Imamov.

"If Hearts get a concrete offer, we will sit and discuss what to do. I know that the club management are happy when Larry plays to his best level.

"If the club gets a firm offer from a top club it will be very interesting for the player.

"He has a contract with this club and we can discuss every day the possibilities for a transfer, but Larry and his family are happy in Edinburgh. He likes the championship (SPL), the style of play, he loves everything."
