Several clubs keen: HSV talent set for winter loan move? | OneFootball

Despite his undeniable talent, Aboubaka Soumahoro has played hardly any role at HSV so far. A loan in the winter is considered a conceivable option.

There is likely to be a lot happening at HSV in the coming weeks. Numerous players could leave the northern club during the winter break. This includes Aboubaka Soumahoro. The Red Shorts have had the young central defender in their squad for months, but his sporting role remains minimal.

The 20-year-old, signed from Paris in February and equipped with a long-term contract, has so far only made a single appearance, and that was during the clear 0-5 defeat against FC Bayern. No further opportunities have arisen.

Since Soumahoro is hardly considered despite now being fully fit, his development might need a new impulse in the winter. If his playing situation does not change by the end of the first half of the season, the player and his environment plan to seek talks with HSV according to Bild information. A loan is seen as a possible solution in this case to enable regular match practice.

Soumahoro rarely in demand at HSV (yet)

In Volkspark, the player is still viewed very positively despite the limited playing time. Coach Merlin Polzin regularly emphasizes that Soumahoro has great potential. Nevertheless, the current sporting situation speaks against the youngster.

The defensive line has noticeably stabilized over the course of the season, and changes are rarely necessary. Even experienced alternatives like Jordan Torunarigha have to be patient and are primarily called upon when other players are injured.

Looking back, the start in Hamburg was also not ideal. Soumahoro was seriously injured in his first training session and missed the entire second half of the previous season. Later, he was also denied participation in the French U20 World Cup, even though it turned out afterward that he neither received Bundesliga minutes during this time nor could benefit in any other way.

For the second half of the season, a temporary move seems realistic. According to Bild, several French clubs are closely monitoring Soumahoro. A loan could therefore be beneficial for both sides sportingly.
