Bénes scores against Union, admits he considered a return to HSV! | OneFootball

At HSV, László Bénes played the strongest individual season of his career. However, the Slovak was not happy at Union Berlin and moved to the Süper Lig in the summer.

When Hamburger SV plays against 1. FC Union Berlin on Sunday (28.09, 7:30 PM), László Bénes will not be able to attend. “Unfortunately, I have a game at the same time and can only watch the highlights afterwards,” the Slovak revealed in the Mopo interview. The midfielder, currently on loan from Union to Kayserispor, experienced the most successful period of his professional career at HSV. After two failed promotion attempts, he moved to the Alte Försterei in the summer of 2024.

But after just one season with the Iron Ones, it was over for Bénes. “My first year at Union just didn’t go as I had imagined,” he says. Before the transfer, he was promised an important role, which he ultimately never received. “I realized from the start that it was different from what I was told. Union plays in a certain way that makes them successful, but it doesn’t suit me,” Bénes explained. “I often sat on the bench, and that wasn’t fun.”

Bénes celebrated HSV promotion

The move to Turkey was therefore logical. Even though the thought of his time at Volkspark continues to accompany him. “I immediately said that I could only imagine a return to HSV in Germany,” said Bénes. He describes the two years in Hamburg as “incredibly beautiful,” and his family also felt very comfortable.

It was only logical that he followed the Rothosen’s return to the Bundesliga with full emotion: “During the promotion, I was in front of the TV until the last second and was overjoyed. When I saw how happy my former teammates and the fans were, I got goosebumps.”
