Hamburger SV is one of the largest clubs in Germany. In the New sticker on T-Online you will find all the important messages about the “red pants”.

Jordan Torunarigha is apparently about to move to Hamburger SV. According to Sky, the 27-year-old central defender should already agree with the Bundesliga promoter. In the next few days, the native Chemnitzer is to complete the medical check in the Hanseatic city.

Torunarigha last played for Kaa Gent in the Belgian league – his contract expires there at the end of June. Previously, he completed 73 Bundesliga games for Hertha BSC.

The former U21 international in Germany was once appointed to the DFB selection by HSV sports director Stefan Kuntz. In total, Torunarigha came to four missions in the U21 and three in the Olympic team. He has been running for the Nigerian national team since 2023.

According to Magath-Aus: Candidate for Vice Presidium withdraws

Former HSV goalkeeper Richard Golz has withdrawn his application for the Presidium of Hamburger SV. The 57-year-old wrote on LinkedIn: “I decided to withdraw my candidacy because the direction formulated together with Felix Magath cannot be implemented for HSV EV.”

Golz wanted to stand for election as Vice President in the team with Felix Magath at the general meeting on June 21. However, after the advisory board rejected Magath’s candidacy, Golz would have started alone. Now he completely does without.

Golz criticized the advisory board’s decision as “non -transparent” and was “personally disappointed” about the failed attempts to allow Magath. Kai Esselsgroth, Henrik Köncke and Frank Ockens are now applying for the presidential office. Laura Ludwig and Anna Stöcken run as vice president; The treasurer’s office is striving for Ralph Hartmann and Michael Papenfuß. Source: “Hamburger Abendblatt”, published on X.

With 14 goals and four templates in 41 games, Matija Frigan has impressively developed into a top performer at the Belgian first division club KVC Westerlo. The 22-year-old Croatian striker is now about to move to the HSV: The Bundesliga promoter is said to be in far advanced talks with Frigan, reports “voetbalkrant.com”.

But the HSV is obviously in good company with the interest in Matija Frigan. Accordingly, the Scottish top club Glasgow Rangers should also have concrete interest and want to drive the conversations-just like Premier League promoted AFC Sunderland from England.

It seems questionable whether the HSV can prevail financially at all: Westerlo should hope for a transfer fee of more than ten million euros. Two years ago, the Belgians themselves transferred 5.5 million euros to HNK Rijeka.

In 2023, Matija Frigan was already in the squad of the Croatian national team twice, but remained without use. So far, he scored two goals for the U21 national team in 15 games.

Hamburger SV is driving personnel planning for the coming season in the Bundesliga. Apparently the Hanseatic players have a former German junior national player on the note. As “Mopo” and “Bild” unanimously report, defender Jordan Torunarigha has aroused the interest of the “red pants”.

According to the “Mopo”, the HSV has a realistic opportunity for the favor of the defensive man, who is available after his contract at the Belgian club Kaa Gent. Accordingly, Torunarigha wants to have clarity about his future by the end of the coming week.

In addition to the HSV, co -promoted 1. FC Köln is also said to have an eye on the defender. In addition, other Bundesliga clubs, the Greek top club Panathinaikos Athens and a club from the Premier League are said to have expressed interest.
