While TSV Hannover-Burgdorf is longing for the end of the season in the no-man’s land of the table in the handball Bundesliga, the hot transfer speculation surrounding national player Renard Uscins continues. Most recently, the powerful left-hander was linked with a move within the HBL to SG Flensburg-Handewitt. Apparently the 23-year-old is headed to France.
As “Sport Bild” reported on Monday, Renard Uscins is moving to the top club Paris Saint-Germain in France after his contract with TSV Hannover-Burgdorf ends. According to the sports newspaper, the backcourt player, who is under contract in the Lower Saxony state capital until the end of June 2027, has already signed his new working paper there.
Uscins, who moved from SC Magdeburg to Maschsee in 2022 and became a national player there, has committed to PSG until 2030. Numerous top teams from all over Europe are said to have tried to recruit the German handball national player, according to “Sport Bild”. The 23-year-old definitely wanted to take the step into the city of love.
Handball: Who will Hannover bring in as Uscins’ successor?
Meanwhile, the search for a Uscins successor is apparently already in full swing. According to “Sport Bild”, Hannover is looking into the return of Ivan Martinovic, who is currently under contract with Veszprem in Hungary. PSG ace Mateo Maras is also said to be a candidate to inherit Uscins in the summer of 2027.
Most recently, the 55-time DHB star was also linked to a move within the Bundesliga. As the Danish online portals “Rygtebors” and “handballtransfer.dk” reported, Uscins had become the focus of SG Flensburg-Handewitt. Talks about a change for the talented international player went on for weeks, but apparently did not lead to any success.
With Viggó Kristjánsson, the North Germans have already found a new addition for the right back. The 32-year-old, who is currently on the field for HC Erlangen in the Bundesliga, will move to the Fjord in the summer of 2027. The Icelander signed a two-year contract in Flensburg. With Francisco Costa, another newcomer is approaching second place in the HBL table.
