Saulius Mikoliūnas (born May 2, 1984) is a Lithuanian professional footballer currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Hearts. He stands 1.78 m tall and weighs 72 kg. "Miko" as he is referred to by fans is a right-sided midfielder who sometimes plays on the left side of midfield.

Mikoliūnas, who is a Lithuanian international, has previously played for FBK Kaunas and represented Lithuania at under-21 level. There was some doubt about him staying at Hearts towards the end of 2005 but that uncertainty was resolved in January 2006 when he signed on loan from FBK Kaunas.

Miko is a regular in the first team for Hearts. He is capable of some breathtaking skill on his day, however his inconsistency has always dogged his Hearts career. Although he silenced many with the winner at Tynecastle vs city rivals Hibernian on Boxing Day 2006. Mikoliunas wife is due to to give birth in early May.
