Eight players could leave HSV: here’s the latest

HSV has already made its first moves in the winter transfer market. With the signing of Damion Downs, the most important gap on the incoming side has been filled.

In addition, Jonas Meffert and goalkeeper Daniel Peretz have already left the club. But that's not all: HSV wants to further slim down its squad to create financial and sporting flexibility for additional reinforcements—especially a backup goalkeeper and an option for the left flank.

Currently, eight professionals are in focus, with at least a loose possibility of departure. The clearest candidates to leave are according to Bild information Silvan Hefti and Noah Katterbach. Both play no sporting role, often train individually, and have little prospect of playing time. While there has been little movement regarding Hefti so far, Katterbach is firmly expecting a transfer. There are no concrete offers yet, but there is interest from both domestic and foreign clubs.

Other HSV stars considering a transfer

Emir Sahiti is also dissatisfied with his role and is exploring alternatives. The situation is similar for Anssi Suhonen, who, after his loan from Sweden, is training with commitment but has no medium- or long-term prospects. A departure is considered likely, but the destination is still open.

The situation around Immanuël Pherai remains interesting. The attacking player wants to wait for the coming weeks to realistically assess his chances of playing. If playing time does not materialize, a loan could be pushed for—especially with regard to his ambitions for the Suriname national team.

Aboubaka Soumahoro was also a candidate for a transfer during the first half of the season, but after several appearances, he now sees another chance at HSV. Bakery Jatta continues to fight for minutes. And Robert Glatzel is also thinking about his future: if, after his injury, he is only the third-choice striker, a transfer could become an issue. However, the forward has repeatedly emphasized that he actually wants to stay at Volkspark at all costs.
