Jankauskas nearing return

Hearts striker Edgaras Jankauskas has targeted the Edinburgh derby against Hibernian on October 15 for his return to action.
The Lithuania international has been sidelined by a thigh injury since the 3-0 loss at AEK Athens in late August, but is now ready to resume training.
Jambos head coach Valdas Ivanauskas told the Edinburgh Evening News: "Edgaras is not involved in the Lithuania matches and will be back in full training after the international break.
"He is not 100 per cent fit, although he is clear of injury now. What he needs is fitness work.
"He could be ready for Hibs, but, after many weeks out, it is dangerous for him to play too quickly."
