Laptop battery replacement / cables too long

Hello everyone,

I have a Lenovo Yoga 530-14IKB 81EK and already replaced the battery about 3 years ago. I couldn't find any original just like today so I bought a fake one. But I am 100% sure it's The right battery for my model (I bought it on Amazon)

The last time everything went well and easy, but this time the cables are a bit too long and are also in a heat shrink tubing. The "best" option I have right now is to remove the cable from all guides and lead them on top of the battery. The only worry/problem is, when I screw in the screw right in the middle of the laptop I have to press a little bit...

Is this a problem? Should I try to find one with slightly shorter cables Or can I just leave it like that?

Thanks in advance and sorry if some of the vocabulary wasn't correct (I am from Germany)
