Heart of Midlothian is delighted to confirm the signing of goalkeeper Beau Reus.
The towering Dutchman joins the Jambos as a free agent, penning a three-year deal subject to international clearance, and visa and Scottish FA approval.
24-year-old Beau, who stands at 6’6” tall, has spent the past four years in Belgium as Beveren’s no.1.
He began his career his Dutch side AZ, coming through their youth system before making his professional debut in 2020 for Jong AZ, their reserve team who compete in Netherlands’ second tier.
Promoted to AZ’s first team in 2021, he made 31 appearances for Jong AZ before making the move to Belgium in 2022.
His first campaign in Flanders ended with the nearest of near misses as they were pipped to the Challenger Pro League title by one point with RWD Molenbeek triumphing.
Season 24/25 saw a fourth-place finish with the third best goals-against record in the league, but Beveren would go on to lose in the semi-finals of the promotion play-offs.
Last year brought success, with Beveren storming to the league title to win by 21 points and Beau conceding only 23 goals for the league’s best goals-against record.
After 48 shutouts in 126 games in Belgium, Beau now continues his career in Gorgie under Wouter Vrancken.
