Hearts: Edgaras Jankauskas & board member leave club

Edgaras Jankauskas is leaving his role as Hearts assistant manager, with director Julija Goncaruk having departed the club's board.

Former Tynecastle player Jankauskas joined the backroom staff last summer.

"It has been a great experience, an honour and privilege to have been here as assistant manager for a year," the Lithuanian told the Hearts website.

Goncaruk is niece to major shareholder Vladimir Romanov and was involved in retail and commercial operations.

She first became a director in 2005, previously worked at Romanov's company UBIG and remains the sole director of Quantum Holdings, a Swiss-based company which owns 15% of Hearts.
