Over the weekend, Arvydas Novikovas' performance in the 17th round of matches in the Polish championship ended unsuccessfully.
Lithuania's national team winger was substituted in the 20th minute due to a heart rhythm disorder.
Warsaw's "Legia" released an official statement indicating that the footballer underwent radiofrequency ablation on Tuesday, which is used for the treatment of supraventricular paroxysmal tachycardia.
It is stated that this diagnosis is related to health problems that A. Novikovas had while playing for the "Bochum" club in Germany.
"Legia" added that the Lithuanian will return to the training process at the beginning of next year.
