Edinburgh reached an agreement with the Lithuanian champions FBK team, so our compatriots will continue to compete in Scotland.

Earlier, both the "Kaunas" and "Hearts" director S.Fedotovas stated that if the Scottish team fails to qualify for the UEFA Cup, at least one of the players would return to Kaunas to help the team compete in the Champions League.

Foreign media announced today that S.Fedotovas himself was at the team's negotiation center, and yesterday he stated that "Hearts" club will be allowed to keep three Lithuanians.

However, S.Fedotovas mentioned that the final decision will depend on the new team's coach. It is not yet known who it will be, but it is believed that a well-known football specialist could take on the role.
