Arthur, Boey, El Ouahdi: who'll fill HSV's right flank? | OneFootball

The countdown is on! Before the transfer deadline next Tuesday, HSV both want and need to strengthen their squad once again in a targeted way.

There is still a particular need for action in one position: Hamburg are looking for a player for the right flank who can compete with established first-choice Bakery Jatta for a starting spot.

Those in charge have been thoroughly sounding out the market in recent weeks. Several candidates are on the list, but three names keep coming up especially often: Arthur, Sacha Boey, and Zakaria El Ouahdi.

The most concrete lead at the moment appears to be Arthur of Bayer Leverkusen. The 23-year-old Brazilian can be deployed flexibly on the right side. Leverkusen are generally open to a loan move, HSV have registered their interest and are in talks with the Werkself. However, there can be no talk of an agreement yet. There is also competition: according to kicker, other Bundesliga clubs are also looking at the wide player.

HSV rumors about El Ouahdi not that hot

The situation regarding Zakaria El Ouahdi is less advanced, according to information from Mopo. It was recently reported in Belgium that HSV had already submitted offers for the Moroccan international. The 24-year-old is still under a long-term contract with KRC Genk and has notable qualities, especially going forward. At the Volkspark, however, the issue is not believed to be a particularly high priority at the moment.

Sacha Boey would also be an eye-catching solution. The Frenchman is considered a likely departure at Bayern Munich. Because of his unquestionable quality, the 24-year-old would be a real marquee signing for HSV. Realistically, though, only a loan deal would be possible. And even then, such a move would likely be extremely demanding financially. So for now, Arthur appears to be the most attainable option of all.
