Hearts have appointed Arturas Ramoska as their new goalkeeping coach.

The 44-year-old Lithuanian replaces Steve Banks, who has been demoted to youth team duties by Tynecastle manager Csaba Laszlo.

Ramoska, who holds a Uefa pro-licence, has experience with Lithuania's senior and Under-21 set-up.

"I think this will strengthen the coaching staff," Laszlo told the club website. "As we always do, we'll work together as one to be successful."

Ramoska will start work immediately with Scotland Under-21 goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald and recent signing Marian Kello.

Hearts are also hoping to attract Hungary keeper Janos Balogh on a loan deal from Debrecen.
