KSC possible buyer
The fact that Stephan Ambrosius (23), who was once considered a top talent, is not granted a short-term future in coach Tim Walter’s HSV squad was shown again this season when the native of Hamburg was back in the “Rothosen” squad at the start of the season in Braunschweig completely missing. Now the writes “picture“-Zeitung that the home-grown child, who came from FC St. Pauli as a 13-year-old, has been given the go-ahead.
The aim is to loan the Ghanaian, who can calculate his chances of participating in the World Cup under national coach Otto Addo. In addition to more likely match practice, an incentive for HSV would also be the savings in Ambrosius’ salary, which the newspaper puts at half a million euros. If a club is found that pays the defender’s salary in full, Ambrosius can go on loan. The contract in Hamburg is valid until 2024.
Top additions to the 2nd Bundesliga 22/23: HSV & St. Pauli with the highest fees
The right foot has suffered several serious injuries in the past. Ambrosius has been suffering from two cruciate ligament tears since the end of 2018. At the time, his market value was on the way to the previous peak in Ambrosius’ career: 2 million euros. The decline in the rating of the Wilhelmsburger was less rapid than the rise at the time, but a minus of more than half of the once highest rating could not be prevented. A move to Karlsruhe could help.
Community discusses Ambrosius’ situation: loan or new role at HSV?
The KSC is not the only interested party. There are other candidates for a loan from the 2nd Bundesliga and from abroad. However, TM community member “Rhombus Seer” thinks that Ambrosius shouldn’t go at all, not even on loan. He writes about Ambrosius in the forum: “He is a different type of player than our other central defenders and that, in addition to his fighting, winning mentality, makes him very valuable in my opinion. He’s a worker and if I were TW I would try to make him more polyvalent and get him on 6 as a Meffo backup, you have to use that tackle strength and I think he would be comfortable on 6 too.”

From the point of view of the KSC, “Latzi” doubts whether an Ambroisus loan makes sense: “But first of all we have a defense that is more than fine. Of course, there isn’t much room for rotation, but our injured players will come back at some point. Then, even if you deduct Mirkovic, we have 6 IV in the squad, 4 of whom have regular player potential and one of whom shouldn’t be behind so many as a talent. Does it now make sense to get another player?”
Before his injury, Ambrosius was a discovery with us the season before last and he was really strong! A loan would be good so that he gets really fit and into his rhythm again, so that he can find his old strength. He’s still relatively young and needs to play. If he can take part in the preparation and pull it off, he will definitely be a real reinforcement for every 2nd division team! …
