Transfer green light given: HSV eye up Bundesliga goalkeeper! | OneFootball

In addition to a left-back, HSV also wants to sign a backup for the goalkeeper position this winter. A Bundesliga keeper is considered the favorite.

As Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg reported on Thursday morning, the Rothosen are seriously considering Kevin Müller from 1. FC Heidenheim. The 34-year-old lost his long-standing starting position in the summer to BVB loanee Diant Ramaj and has yet to play a minute in a competitive match this season.

Therefore, Heidenheim has already given their keeper permission to look for a new club in the winter. Müller, whose contract in the Swabian Ostalb runs until 2027, would be available for almost no transfer fee due to his advanced age and limited sporting role, according to Plettenberg.

HSV Values Müller for His Mentality

This could be advantageous for HSV. After the early departure of Bayern loanee Daniel Peretz, the newly promoted team wants to sign an established goalkeeper soon, who will serve as a backup for mainstay Daniel Heuer Fernandes until the end of the season. Currently, only the youngsters Hannes Herrmann and Fernando Dickes are available alongside the German-Portuguese.

And even though there have been no direct talks between the clubs yet, Müller could perfectly fit the requirements of the Hanseatics: He is experienced, relatively inexpensive, and knows the Bundesliga well. According to Sky, the veteran is also valued within HSV for his mentality.

Müller himself is reportedly ready for a new challenge. However, it is questionable whether he would be willing to assume the clear number two role again after being ousted in Heidenheim. Because: HSV has a clear plan to go into the second half of the season with Heuer Fernandes as the main goalkeeper. Additionally, talks regarding a contract extension are set to begin in February.
