Burton's Kalinauskas joins Kalmar on loan

Tomas Kalinauskas started his professional career at Barnsley

Burton Albion winger Tomas Kalinauskas has left the League One club to join Swedish second division side Kalmar FF on a season-long loan.

The 25-year-old Lithuania international scored just two goals in 43 appearances for the Brewers last season.

He moved to the Pirelli Stadium from Dutch club FC Den Bosch last summer, and was one of the British-record 23 players signed by the east Staffordshire club during that transfer window.

Kalinauskas still has two years on his contract at Burton, but his loan exit come amid another overhaul of the squad.

Eight new additions have been made this summer, with winger Tyrese Shade among the arrivals.

Kalinauskas told Kalmar's website that he spoke to Burton's Swedish contingent of Jack Cooper-Love and Julian Larsson before deciding to relocate his career again.
