Former club keen on Sahiti comeback! | OneFootball

Emir Sahiti is currently facing a tough situation at HSV. Given his lack of playing time, a separation in the winter seems possible. A potential suitor is already waiting.

Emir Sahiti knows this suitor very well. According to Mopo information, Hajduk Split has already expressed interest. The winger wore the jersey of the Croatian traditional club from January 2019 until August 2024 and made a name for himself there, which led to his transfer to Hamburg for a fee of 1.3 million euros. However, only a loan deal would be possible in the winter, as Hajduk cannot afford Sahiti’s salary.

However, the 26-year-old, who is under contract until 2027, is not thinking about leaving in the winter. He remains determined to establish himself at HSV by working his way back into the starting eleven through substitute appearances. To do so, Sahiti would first need to be included in the squad again. In the last four Bundesliga matches, he has had to watch from the stands. The last time the right-footer played was in the derby defeat against FC St. Pauli (0:2).

Sahiti currently sidelined at HSV and national team

At the start of the season, the technically gifted Sahiti was still part of the starting lineup, before Rayan Philippe took his spot. The decisive factor was mainly Philippe’s clear speed advantage, which suits HSV’s preferred transition play. Philippe joined from Braunschweig in the summer. The fact that coach Merlin Polzin dropped Sahiti from the squad entirely reportedly even caused surprise within the team.

Currently, Sahiti finds himself in a difficult sporting situation. He no longer plays a role in the Kosovan national team either. However, the player himself is responsible for this, as he publicly criticized coach Franco Foda. Foda then decided to do without Sahiti entirely. The results proved him right, as Kosovo now has realistic chances of qualifying for the World Cup. Sahiti, on the other hand, does not need to concern himself with participating in the final tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico for the time being, and can instead fully focus on reclaiming his starting spot at HSV.
