Medical on Monday! HSV seal third summer signing | OneFootball

HSV are on the verge of signing their third new arrival! After Kofi Amoako and Albert Grønbaek, who had already joined on loan, Martin Adeline is also expected to join the team in the coming days.

As reported by Mopo and Abendblatt, the Hamburg club have reached an agreement with ES Troyes AC over the transfer of the French attacking player. According to the reports, the newly promoted Ligue 1 side accepted an offer worth four million euros. Adeline is expected in Volkspark for his medical as early as Monday. If everything goes according to plan, the final contract details will then be settled before the 22-year-old puts pen to paper on a long-term deal.

It would be a remarkable deal for HSV. Adeline was one of the most dominant players in Ligue 2 last season. An impressive ten goals and eleven assists in 36 competitive appearances speak for themselves. His market value rose just as rapidly, climbing from €700,000 to around €10 million within a year. However, with his contract in France only running until 2027, the Rothosen appear set to sign the playmaker for well below his estimated market value.

HSV: Is the Vieira move now off the table?

From a sporting perspective too, Adeline fits the Hanseatic club’s plans perfectly. The former France youth international can be deployed flexibly in attacking midfield and is considered hard-running, creative, and a goal threat. Fabio Vieira also possesses similar qualities, having returned to Arsenal for the time being after his successful loan spell at HSV. As a result, Adeline had repeatedly been mentioned recently as a possible successor.

However, the Portuguese player’s transfer is not automatically off the table because of the impending signing. The HSV hierarchy are still working on a solution to keep the fan favourite on the Elbe permanently. But the truth is that finding that solution remains difficult. The Adeline deal should at least ensure that some of the major pressure is taken out of the negotiations with Arsenal.
