Alexandros Kyziridis to Leave Hearts
Hearts have agreed a deal to sell Greece winger Alexandros Kyziridis to an unnamed Turkish club for a fee of around £1.7m. The 25-year-old joined the Tynecastle club last summer from Slovakian outfit Zemplin Michalovce, signing a three-year contract.
Impressive Spell at Hearts
Kyziridis impressed early on at Hearts as a key attacking player under head coach Derek McInnes. He scored six goals and recorded 11 assists in 42 appearances. The winger made his international debut in a friendly against Italy this summer.
Recruitment Strategy Continues
Under Hearts data-orientated recruitment partner Jamestown Analytics, Josh McPake and Calvin Miller have been signed in a similar position this summer. This move suggests Hearts are committed to their data-driven approach to player recruitment. Kyziridis will now travel to Turkey to finalise his move.
Next Steps for Hearts
The deal is now set to be completed, with Alexandros Kyziridis leaving Hearts after a successful spell at the club. Hearts will look to replace Kyziridis with a new signing, potentially using their data-driven approach to identify the right player.
