Naismith braced for summer switch

The youngster is one of Scottish football's hottest properties and has attracted interest from Celtic, Rangers and Arsenal. But the 20-year-old, who won the young player of the month award for March, insists he switches off to speculation over his future. Naismith said: "If someone comes in with an offer which the club feels is too good to turn down and they need the money then I might not be here next season. I know that's an issue. "I wouldn't be unhappy if the club accepted an offer or be unhappy if they don't. It's up to the club. "If they feel they need to sell me then I've had a great time at Kilmarnock but if not then I'm happy to stay. "At one point, there will be a stage when I'll want to move on but, if you look at guys like Kris Boyd and Kevin Thomson, they are a couple of years older than me so I have time on my side. "If something comes in that interests me and the club then it might happen now, but if not then later, or it may not happen at all. "But I don't think about it too much until something concrete comes in. "The good thing about the transfer window is I know nothing can happen until the summer anyway so all my focus is getting Kilmarnock up the league. So I can put it to the back of my head. "If I go, on then the club will get their reward in the transfer fee."
