Fourth winter departure: How much HSV pocket for Ramos! | OneFootball

HSV continues to streamline its squad. As has now become known, central defender Gui Ramos is on the verge of transferring to Chinese top-flight club Beijing Guoan.

This marks the fourth departure for the Red Shorts in the current transfer window, and at least brings in a small transfer fee.

According to Bild information, the 28-year-old already completed the mandatory medical check-up on Tuesday in Hamburg. The club from the Chinese Super League had requested that the check be carried out at short notice on the Elbe. Mopo reports that the deal could be made official on Wednesday.

For HSV, this deal makes sense primarily from an economic perspective. Around 100,000 euros will flow to the Hanseatic city as a transfer fee. Next summer, Ramos would have been available on a free transfer.

HSV records fourth winter departure

Sportingly, the Portuguese player hardly played a role in the plans of the coach and sporting management. In the current Bundesliga season, Ramos has only clocked 41 minutes of play, spread over eight brief appearances. The outlook was correspondingly limited. Even last season, HSV had loaned the defender to his home club Santa Clara, but the hoped-for fresh start failed to materialize there as well.

Ramos was once considered a young defender with great potential. His highest market value was two million euros, but this has now dropped significantly and is currently estimated at around 700,000 euros. The move to China now offers the 28-year-old a chance for a sporting fresh start and probably also improved financial terms.

HSV, in turn, can further relieve both its squad and its payroll. After Jonas Meffert, Daniel Peretz, and Anssi Suhonen, Ramos is already the fourth player to leave the North Germans this winter. With Silvan Hefti, Noah Katterbach, or Emir Sahiti, more players could follow.
