Summer exit on the cards? HSV confirm interest in BVB youngster | OneFootball

After the failed winter transfer, HSV is making another attempt to sign BVB talent Almugera Kabar. In Dortmund, the prospects for the left-back remain limited.

Another departure could be on the horizon for Borussia Dortmund this summer: Almugera Kabar is still on the wish list of Hamburger SV. As reported by the Hamburger Morgenpost, both clubs are planning a new exchange about a possible transfer after the failed winter move.

From Dortmund's perspective, the deal was almost completed before it fell through at the last minute. The reason was a failed medical check – Kabar would not have been immediately available due to injury. Meanwhile, the 19-year-old is fit again, but his sporting situation at BVB has changed little.

Under coach Niko Kovac, the left-back plays no role with the professionals and is still waiting for his first appearance this season. Instead, he is gaining match practice in the second team, where he has developed into an important key player. In 14 appearances, he has scored six goals and provided one assist – remarkable stats for a defensive player. Nevertheless, his prospects in the Bundesliga squad are currently limited, even though his contract runs until 2028.

Kabar on the brink of leaving BVB? HSV makes a new attempt

A transfer in the summer therefore seems quite realistic. In Hamburg, they are closely monitoring the development. "Of course, he remains on our radar," HSV sporting director Claus Costa recently stated. According to the Hamburger Morgenpost, upcoming discussions will also involve squad planning on the left defensive side.

For BVB, a transfer could represent a sensible solution if Kabar's role does not change. At the same time, the young player would have the opportunity to regularly gain playing time at a higher level. This opportunity could arise at HSV – especially if regular player Miro Muheim leaves the club.

The league affiliation of Hamburg is also likely to influence the decision. By the time negotiations take place in the summer, there will likely be clarity about which league HSV will compete in – a significant factor for the future of the talent. From Dortmund's perspective, much suggests that the paths could part in the summer – provided HSV's second attempt is more concrete than it was in the winter.
