Mikoliunas suffered the knee injury against St Mirren in the league

Hearts manager Csaba Laszlo has confirmed that Saulius Mikoliunas will not require surgery on his knee and will be assessed again in four weeks.

Tests concluded that the 24-year-old Lithuania international suffered a torn lateral ligament during the recent 1-0 league win against St Mirren.

However, Laszlo said the injury will rule the midfielder out for two months.

"Miko is in a brace at the moment and still in some pain, but he doesn't need an operation," said Laszlo.
