**[FC Hegelmann](https://balticfootballnews.com/?page_id=2406 "FC Hegelmann") has announced that midfielder Domantas Antanavičius will remain with the team for one more season.**

The 26-year-old Marijampole native joined Hegelmann before the 2024 season, coming from Kazakhstan, where he played for FC Atyrau for two seasons.

**Domantas** quickly became one of the standout players for the Kaunas district club, helping them secure their best-ever season—finishing in second place in the [A Lyga](https://balticfootballnews.com/?page_id=1120 "A Lyga") and reaching the final of the Lithuanian Cup. In total, he played 39 games across all competitions, scoring four goals and providing one assist.

**Antanavičius** also made his debut for the Lithuanian National Team this year, coming off the bench during the [Baltic Cup 2024](https://balticfootballnews.com/?page_id=3475 "Baltic Cup") semifinal match against Latvia.

He began his career in Marijampole, winning two A Lyga titles with [Sūduva](https://balticfootballnews.com/?page_id=2522 "FK Sūduva Marijampolė"). His journey has included stints in Estonia with Maardu LM and in Lithuania with FK Panevežys and Stumbras. He also won a league title in Slovenia with NK Celje.

FC Hegelmann will begin preparations for the new A Lyga season on January 6th.
