Romano reports: HSV close to signing wonderkid! | OneFootball

HSV apparently is on the verge of wrapping up its first transfer for the coming season. 

As transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports, the signing of Andrej Vasiljevic is in the final stretch. According to him, the Red Shorts are making visible progress in the negotiations. Romano says his famous “Here we go” could follow very soon. But what kind of player could HSV be about to secure here?

Vasiljevic is 16 years old and is under contract with Hungarian top club MTK Budapest. The young striker already has a professional deal there, although no further details are known. Vasiljevic mostly plays for the club’s U19 side – even though by age he still belongs to the younger U17 category.

HSV target on the radar of numerous top clubs

The teenager first attracted international attention last December when he scored all three goals in the prestigious U19 derby between MTK and Ferencvaros Budapest. Since then at the latest, Vasiljevic has been regarded as one of Hungarian football’s biggest future prospects. He has made a total of seven appearances for his country’s U17 national team.

Nur die Raute – All the news about HSV

If HSV really does secure the services of the youngster, it would be a real coup. Italian sports journalist Lorenzo Lepore reported at the end of 2025 that Borussia Dortmund, Inter Milan, as well as clubs from the City Group and the Red Bull Group, were also interested. Romano, meanwhile, keeps it more general and writes of “numerous” clubs.

What is clear is that HSV sporting director Claus Costa is said to have pushed hard for the impending deal. “He personally led the efforts to sign the striker,” Romano says, without giving any details on a possible transfer fee. If Lepore’s information is accurate, it would in any case likely be a seven-figure sum.
