HSV paradox: top scorer probably has no future at the club!

No topic is discussed as passionately in the HSV environment: The mere six goals by classic center-forwards are repeatedly a cause for criticism.

Now, of all times, the club's most reliable striker on paper is on the verge of leaving. Maurice Boakye scores at will in the Regionalliga and, according to Mopo information, still has no future at Volkspark.

Boakye was once again the outstanding man on the field in the recent 4-0 victory of HSV U21 against Altona 93. With a hat-trick, he raised his tally to 18 goals in 26 games this season. "I'm open to everything, but I don't think too much about it," the 21-year-old said about his future. Despite being one of the most dangerous scorers in the Regionalliga Nord, much points to a departure in the summer.

The numbers are impressive: No other player shapes the offensive of the HSV reserve as much as Boakye. U21 coach Lukas Anderer emphasized once again after the derby victory: "Today he made the difference." The youngster also played a crucial role in the team's rise from the bottom of the table to fifth place.

Next HSV Talent to Elversberg?

Nevertheless, under coach Merlin Polzin, he has so far been denied a breakthrough with the professionals. After sporadic appearances in preparation, Boakye no longer played a role in the league, not once being in a competitive match squad. Apparently, the club does not trust him to make the leap to the Bundesliga.

Additionally, there's the contract situation. Boakye's contract expires in the summer, and an extension is unlikely at this point. According to Mopo, there are inquiries from both domestic and international clubs. Last winter, SV 07 Elversberg had already expressed interest. Boakye's former teammate Raif Adam, who moved to Saarland for 400,000 euros before the second half of the season, now plays there.

Whether there will actually be a reunion of the two HSV talents at the current second-place team in the 2. Bundesliga remains to be seen. However, a future in blue, white, and black seems unlikely for Boakye.
