It's unlikely that Dennis Hadzikadunic will get a second chance at HSV. The club has other plans for the defense.
There has been little news about Dennis Hadzikadunic in recent weeks. The center-back, who was a key player for Hamburger SV last season and played a significant role in their promotion, returned to FK Rostov after his second loan spell ended.
About two months later, it's clear: the center-back has no future at HSV. After positive talks with the club management, Hadzikadunic had hoped for a permanent contract before leaving for his summer vacation. However, no concrete offer was made.
According to Mopo information, this situation is unlikely to change. The Bosnian player has also come to this realization and is disappointed to be closing the chapter on his time in Hamburg.
For Hadzikadunic, this is a double blow: firstly, he wanted to stay and play in the Bundesliga with the Red Shorts. Secondly, his agent had signaled to interested clubs that a permanent transfer to HSV was likely.
Now that this option has fallen through, many clubs have already filled their gaps in defense and no longer need him. Nevertheless, Hadzikadunic still hopes to stay in the Bundesliga, and several clubs have reportedly expressed interest in him.
HSV, on the other hand, has other plans. They want to present a new center-back at the latest next week. However, names like Armel Bella-Kotchap or Clemens Riedel from SV Darmstadt 98 will not be joining the club. Therefore, it is likely that a defender who has not been mentioned yet will sign with HSV soon. The Hadzikadunic chapter seems to be closed for good.
