In the seventh year, Hamburger SV finally made it and realized the promotion back to the Bundesliga. In order to be able to keep himself back in the German football upper house, the HSV wants to further improve its professional squad and get it first-division-compatible. Sports board member Stefan Kuntz has explained what will be particularly important for the compilation of the future team.
“We would like to have a performer or a regular player in every position, regardless of age. And in the best case a young challenger at the back. We will probably not be able to do that 100 percent, but that is our endeavor,” Stefan Kuntz told the “Sport Bild” the transfer strategy that is being followed at Hamburger SV in the upcoming summer.
In the past few days, the red pants have already been associated with midfielder Laurin Ulrich from VfB Stuttgart II. In addition, according to the “Sport Bild” information, U20 international and storm hopes of Ilya were currently being discussed at HSV. The 20-year-old ran for SC Paderborn until the very end.
Reinforcements for all team parts sought
Overall, the Bundesliga returnee wants to strengthen itself in all parts of the team, as the media report says.
In addition to a strong goalkeeper, it should also be retrofitted in the inner and full-back position, as well as in midfield, for which a duel and dribble-strong new addition is sought.
So far, the Hamburg club bosses had focused primarily on keeping the existing staff in the team. After the promotion has now largely been completed, the HSV managers look around for external new obligations. In addition, Gui Ramos and Anssi Suhonen first come back to the Hanseatic city after borrowing.
