Hearts Sign Greek Winger Alexandros Kyziridis From Slovak Club

Greek winger Alexandros Kyziridis will join Heart of Midlothian on a three-year contract this summer after his current deal with Slovak top-flight club MFK Zemplin Michalovce expires. The 24-year-old has had an impressive season, scoring 16 goals and providing 8 assists in 26 appearances, making him one of the top performers in the Slovak First Football League. Kyziridis is described as a pacey and direct attacker, predominantly playing as a left-sided winger, with the versatility to operate on the right or through the middle. He has a diverse playing background including youth development at Greek giants PAOK, professional stints in Greece, Slovakia, Hungary, and a loan spell in Slovenia. This signing is the first under new Hearts head coach Derek McInnes, who aims to strengthen the squad’s wide options following a disappointing previous season. Hearts are also planning additional signings as part of a summer rebuild, with departures such as Barrie McKay and Jorge Grant confirmed and contract extensions offered to key players like Craig Gordon and Lawrence Shankland.
