Hamburger SV is one of the largest clubs in Germany. The news ticker on t-online contains all the important reports about the “Rothosen”.
The Bundesliga game between Hamburger SV and Bavarian Leverkusen will catch up on Wednesday, March 4th at 8:30 p.m. in the Volksparkstadion. The German Football League (DFL) announced this on Friday.
The game was originally scheduled to take place on Tuesday, January 13th – but the extreme thaw caused structural problems in the stadium. The authorities saw security risks and canceled the game at short notice.
According to the DFL, the relocation was “inevitable”. The new date now brings some clarity, especially for fans who have already purchased tickets.
Loud HSV All tickets that have already been purchased remain valid for the rescheduled date. Anyone who cannot keep the new appointment is entitled to a refund. The association provides further information on its website.
Before the home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday, HSV could reduce its squad. According to “Bild”, Anssi Suhonen is moving to the Danish first division club Odense BK and is due to complete the medical check on Friday. If he passes this, HSV will receive a transfer fee in the five-figure range. Suhonen’s contract in Hamburg expires in summer 2026.
The Finn came to HSV’s U17s from Käpylän Pallo in 2017 and made his professional debut in 2021 under coach Tim Walter. Despite great sympathy from the fans, the big breakthrough never came, partly because of repeated injuries. In 52 competitive games, Anssi Suhonen scored two goals and provided five assists. After loans to Jahn Regensburg (13 appearances) and Östers IF (13 appearances, one goal, one assist), Suhonen is now apparently moving to Denmark, where he will meet former HSV talent Fiete Arp.

Hamburger SV’s long-endangered Bundesliga game against Borussia Mönchengladbach is taking place. Two days before kick-off on Saturday (3:30 p.m./Sky), HSV gave the all-clear and announced that the closure for the Volksparkstadion would be lifted on Friday afternoon.
Hamburg’s game against Bayer Leverkusen was canceled at short notice on Tuesday due to static problems on the roof of the arena. The reason for this was due to the accumulated condensation on the roof membrane of the Volksparkstadion as a result of the heavy snowfall.
