dailyrecord.co.ukHamilton Accies have sealed their fourth signing of the January transfer window after securing a deal for Connor Smith.The Hearts striker, who is the brother of former Accies striker and current Airdrieonians frontman Callum, joins on loan until the end of the season.The 23-year-old is in the squad for today's Championship clash at Partick Thistle but starts on the bench, as John Rankin's Accies look for a precious three points to boost their survival bid at the bottom of the table.On Thursday Rankin revealed he was close to adding a striker but couldn't say who, but he did provide his thoughts on what Smith would bring.He said: "I know the player very well.
He's very creative, a good attacking option."He's got that wee bit of confidence and a wee bit of arrogance on the pitch as well but at the same time I think he will bring a real creative threat for us in the final third, which is something we've lacked as well."He will definitely improve us."Follow Lanarkshire Live Sport onTwitter via@LanLiveSport, like us onFacebookor find us onInstagramfor the latest sports news, pictures and video.
