The transfer of Almugera Kabar to HSV seemed to be a done deal in the winter. But at the last minute, the deal fell through.

However, a transfer could become a topic once again in the summer. The 19-year-old left-back from Borussia Dortmund remains a candidate for the Hanseatic team!

In January, everything was actually prepared: HSV had agreed with BVB on a loan including a purchase option, and there was also agreement with the player himself. Kabar traveled to Hamburg, completed the obligatory medical check, and even watched the convincing 2-2 draw against FC Bayern from the stands.

But then came the surprising turn of events. The HSV doctors diagnosed a ligament strain, which would have meant a break of "three to four weeks." The officials considered this too long and canceled the transfer at short notice.

HSV still has Kabar on the list

Despite this setback, the interest remains unbroken. "Of course, he remains on our radar," emphasized HSV sporting director Claus Costa recently. The sporting decision-makers at Volkspark are still convinced of the qualities of the U17 World and European champion.

According to Mopo information, the parties want to meet again towards the summer break. Then a new attempt could be made under changed circumstances. A decisive role is likely to be played by the squad planning on the left defense side. Because: The contract of HSV's regular player Miro Muheim only runs until 2027, while his nominal backup Noah Katterbach no longer has any prospects and is expected to leave the club in the summer.

For Kabar himself, a move remains attractive as well. Under coach Niko Kovač, he currently has almost no chances with Borussia Dortmund's professionals. Instead, he gains match practice in the Regionalliga West, where he has recently been able to draw attention with strong performances.
