Looking for a new addition for the winter HSV Apparently came across a talented professional from Borussia Dortmund. The club has already contacted Almugera Kabar, “Bild” reported on Tuesday. HSV is said to be interested in a permanent transfer of the 19-year-old left-back.
Almugera Kabar, born in Bremen, could compete with regular player Miro Muheim. The youngster made his Bundesliga debut for BVB in 2024/25 (five appearances so far), but coach Niko Kovač recently relied on more experienced players. In the current season, Kabar played ten times for the U23s in the regional league (four goals). In 2023 he became world and European champion with the German U17 national team, and most recently played for the U20 for the first time in October 2025.

HSV midfielder Jonas Meffert is apparently about to return to second division club Holstein Kiel. According to information from the “Abendblatt”, the 31-year-old decided to take this step over the Christmas period.
Meffert moved from Kiel to HSV in 2021. In three of four second division years in Hamburg he was at times an irreplaceable leading player. However, after promotion to the first division, the Cologne native lost his place in the HSV team. He was only in the starting line-up once this Bundesliga season. Meffert’s contract with Hamburg expires next summer. Both clubs still have to agree on a transfer of the midfielder.

For four years, Jonas Meffert was a reliable support in HSV’s defensive midfield. In his 126 second division games (three goals) for the Rothosen, he was in the starting line-up in 125 cases and only missed a total of ten league games due to suspensions or injuries. However, the situation has changed significantly since promotion: Meffert is often no longer even the second choice for HSV coach Merlin Polzin. The 31-year-old has only played four times in the 15 matchdays so far and has only been on the pitch for 144 minutes.
Now there are increasing signs of a farewell in winter. Holstein Kiel should look into signing Jonas Meffert, reports “Sky” and “Kicker”, among others, agree. The midfielder’s contract in Hamburg ends in the summer of 2026 – HSV could make some money for the last time through a sale in January.
