Vykintas Slivka (born 29 April 1995) is a Lithuanian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Greek Super League club Lamia and the Lithuania national team.

Club career

Slivka signed for Italian club Juventus in 2014. He was loaned to Modena, Gorica, Den Bosch and Ascoli over the next three seasons.[1]

He left Juventus in July 2017, signing a three-year contract with Hibernian.[2][3] He scored his first goal for Hibernian on 12 August, in a 3–2 win against Rangers.[4] Slivka missed over two months of the 2017–18 season due to a hamstring injury.[5] In his first appearance after the injury, Slivka scored the second goal for Hibs in a 2–1 win against Celtic.[5] During the following season Slivka maintained an unusual streak of only scoring goals for Hibs against either half of the Old Firm, scoring in the first minute of a 2–0 win at home to Celtic.[6] Slivka was one of three first team players released by Hibs at the end of the 2019–20 season.[7]

On 31 August 2020, Slivka signed for Super League Greece club Apollon Smyrnis.[8]

International career

On 5 June 2015, Slivka made his debut for Lithuania in a friendly match against Hungary.[9] During 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification, Slivka scored goals against Slovenia and Malta.
