Four new signings on the cards? These are the positions HSV are targeting! | OneFootball

So far, HSV has only signed one new player for the winter, Damion Downs. In the next two weeks, numerous players could follow.

It has long been established that Hamburg is primarily looking for reinforcements between the posts and at the left-back position. After the early departure of Daniel Peretz, the bosses want to provide Daniel Heuer Fernandes with an experienced backup.

Additionally, a competitor for regular starter Miro Muheim is expected to arrive for the left flank. Noah Katterbach has so far not turned out to be the hoped-for challenger and could still leave the club during this transfer window. Ideally, the sought-after candidate should serve as a more defensively solid counterpart to Muheim.

Will HSV make a double move in attack?

But there could also be changes in the attack. Despite signing Damion Downs, HSV’s offense continues to struggle with scoring issues in 2026. Against Borussia Mönchengladbach (0:0), 25 attempts and twelve shots on goal were not enough for a win. According to a report by Bild, those in charge would, in principle, be willing to bring another striker to Volkspark and even spend a considerable amount of money to do so. The prerequisite, however, is that they are completely convinced by the potential new signing. Claus Costa and his colleagues do not want to act rashly.

The same applies to the left wing. Jean-Luc Dompé is the clear first choice here, but has been struggling for months with persistent Achilles tendon problems. Even the winter break did not bring the hoped-for improvement, which is why the club is at least monitoring the market.

Could the two youngsters Fabio Baldé and Alexander Røssing-Lelesiit adequately compensate for a possible absence of the Frenchman? If the squad planners answer this question with a no, it is quite possible that a left winger could also be brought to the Waterkant before the deadline day.
