Davie Selke, who was elected by the transfer market community for his achievements for the rise of Hamburger SV as the player of the 2024/25 second division season, has been officially clubless since July 1. The fact that the 30 -year -old striker has a future with the red pants is becoming increasingly unlikely. According to the “Hamburger Abendblatt“Selke is currently not a HSV contract offer. With Yussuf Poulsen (31) from RB Leipzig, a possible successor has already been found. And according to his loan from Sparta Prague, Adam Karabec does not seem to return to the Hanseatic city for the time being.
“We all know what we had about Davie in the past year – not only on, but also outside the square,” said Polzin the newspaper On the edge of the HSV training start on Wednesday about Selke, who had become top scorer with 22 goals in 31 second division games. “We still need a little time to be able to give you more. We are clearly in exchange with him and the club tour.”
Exchange yes, offer no. One thing was last existed in March, over two years. Selke therefore wanted a three -year contract with 1.8 million euros per anno. 350,000 euros per year too much for the HSV, it is said. The former Berlin, Leipziger, Cologne and Bremer wants to play in a top European league, so a change to the Middle East is therefore out of the question. Especially since his family should feel comfortable in the chosen city. That would be in Hamburg, but there you could already look around for a successor and identified it in RB record player Poulsen (425 missions/95 goals).

HSV: Poulsen available for salary smears – Polzin via Karabec
The 31-year-old Dane has been playing for the Red Bulls since third division times and has a contract that is valid until next year. However, since Leipzig 2025/26 is not internationally there, the prospect of season seems even less than in the previous year, where only 362 minutes of Bundesliga came around for him. The Saxons would not put large stones in their way to their deserved professional, reports the “Evening sheet“.
A possible transfer is between 2 million and 3 million euros and thus well below Poulsen’s market value, which is 5 million euros. Nevertheless, this should still be pressed if possible. The salary is also no reason for the HSV not to think about the 87-time international, World Cup and EM participants. Poulsen is ready to compromise. In initial talks with the Hamburgers, he signaled his willingness to change. The Rayan Philippe (24), which was just committed, is more likely to be planned on the right wing.
Trainer Polzin also commented on Karabec, which was previously borrowed from the Czech Republic, and showed understanding for the financial pain limit of his employer: “As a club, we have set ourselves a clear guideline that is important outside of the coaching opinion.” He sees himself in the offensive midfielder, who contributed three goals and seven templates in League 2, a “fantastic person who works very well and hard. He is a footballer who can make the difference in the decisive moments.”
He could well imagine “under certain conditions” to continue with Karabec. According to the “Abendblatt”, these are, however, with a significantly lower transfer as a Sparta. The agreed purchase option was 4.2 million euros, the HSV did not pull it. The “Picture“Most recently wrote that one could rather imagine 3 million euros on the Elbe. The Czech U21 international said:” I would very much like to stay with HSV if it is possible. “
