Del's purring over his maroon Rolls Royce

The 23-year-old, who joined from Portuguese club Santa Clara on Friday for a reported €2million, was sent on for his debut midway through the second half and impressed as teammate Alexandros Kyziridis popped up with a stoppage-time winner in front of around 6300 travelling fans.

Mcinnes, who remained coy on the prospect of signing German goalkeeper Alexander Schwolow, is excited about what his newest recruit will bring to Tynecastle.
