HSV extends the contract with the goalkeeper – and gives him to a third division team
The Hamburger SV has extended the contract with goalkeeper Hannes Hermann. The Hanseatic people announced this on Monday. At the same time he communicated HSV also the loan of the 21-year-old goalkeeper. Hermann will play for third division club Jahn Regensburg next season.
HSV sports director Claus Costa explains the decision: “Hannes has developed very well in recent years, both athletically and personally. He has proven his potential both in our U21 in the regional league and with the U20 of the DFB,” he said.
It is now very important for Hermann’s development to “gain match practice at the highest possible level in professional football.” The loan to Regensburg was “exactly the right step.” Hermann was the regular goalkeeper for the HSV U21 team for the past two seasons. During this time he stood between the posts 60 times and remained clean 17 times.
Own goal: HSV professional experiences bitter World Cup premiere
Miro Muheim may have imagined his personal World Cup debut differently. The HSV professional was on the road to success with Switzerland against Qatar for a long time before the 28-year-old, of all people, deprived his nation of victory.
After just 17 minutes, Switzerland took the lead thanks to a penalty from Breel Embolo. The Swiss then controlled the game, but missed many chances. Muheim came on as a substitute in the 89th minute to secure the narrow lead.
In the 90th + 4th Qatar then shocked Switzerland in the minute: After a high cross into the penalty area, Boualem Khoukhi rose to head the ball past Muheim. The HSV defender caught the ball unluckily and directed it into the left corner, making it unstoppable for goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.
