Miko: My heart's in Gorgie


BARRY ANDERSON
SAULIUS MIKOLIUNAS hopes to return to Hearts before the season ends provided he can conclude negotiations with Vladimir Romanov on a new contract.
The winger was summoned to Lithuania last week for discussions with Romanov, the club's majority shareholder, after refusing the offer of new terms. He is officially on loan from FBK Kaunas but his agreement is due to expire in a matter of weeks.

Mikoliunas has been offered a reduced salary to stay in Scotland next season but has so far opted not to sign. This prompted questions over his long-term future but, speaking from his home in Lithuania, he told the Evening News that he does not consider his Hearts career to be over yet.

"I'm still a Hearts player, I just came here for negotiations so we will see what happens in the future," he said. "I hope the negotiations will go well and I hope to be back soon, maybe before the end of the season. At the moment I cannot comment too much."

Mikoliunas has played only 13 times this season having missed three months of the campaign with knee ligament damage.

Another player unsure of his future is Portuguese midfielder Bruno Aguiar, who scored a stunning free-kick in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Celtic at Tynecastle.

Aguiar's contract expires at the end of the season although talks over an extension remain ongoing between his agent, Paulo Barbosa, and Romanov. "I have one month and two weeks left with Hearts. After that I don't know," said Aguiar. "We have six games left and after that we'll see. I have said before that I like the club but it's not the time to talk about my future."
