  "account": "Heart of Midlothian have reached an agreement to transfer Greece winger Alexandros Kyziridis to a Turkish club for approximately £1.7 million. The 25-year-old joined the Scottish club last summer from Slovakian team Zemplin Michalovce, signing a three-year deal. Over the summer, Kyziridis has garnered interest from various clubs. Impressing early at Hearts, he played a key role under manager Derek McInnes, who led the team to a near league title. He scored six goals and provided 11 assists in 42 appearances and made his international debut against Italy this summer. Kyziridis was part of Hearts' squad in their match against Benfica in Lisbon last week but will now head to Turkey to finalize his move. The club's data-driven recruitment partner, Jamestown Analytics, identified Josh McPake and Calvin Miller as suitable signings in a similar position this summer.",
