On Monday, parts of the HSV squad began preparations for the upcoming season. But for two Rothosen players, the action is still continuing at the World Cup in North America.
Sander Tangvik had particularly good reason to celebrate last weekend. The Norwegian backup goalkeeper witnessed his national team’s sensational 2-1 win over Brazil from close range and then celebrated exuberantly with his teammates. Thanks to a late brace from superstar Erling Haaland, Norway has reached the World Cup quarter-finals for the first time ever and will face England there on Saturday (11 p.m.).
Even though Tangvik has not played yet, the 23-year-old is currently experiencing what are probably the most exciting days of his still-young career. For HSV, every additional day in the tournament also brings extra FIFA payments. However, the financial impact remains limited. For each released player, clubs receive according to a Mopo report, $5,000 per day. Since Tangvik only moved to Hamburg from Rosenborg BK in January, HSV also has to share the amount with his former club.

Meanwhile, Miro Muheim is being watched with at least as much anticipation in Volkspark. The Swiss international faces Colombia on Tuesday evening (10 p.m.) in Vancouver, Canada, and is also fighting for a place in the quarter-finals. A blockbuster clash with defending champions Argentina could even await there.
After recovering from injury and a complicated start to the tournament, Muheim does not have a realistic chance of making the starting lineup. Nevertheless, HSV will no doubt be rooting hard for their Swiss star. That is due in part to the close emotional bond with the long-serving key player, and in part because of the additional FIFA bonuses.
What is also clear, however, is that neither another round survived nor even a potentially sensational World Cup triumph by the club’s two protégés will have any major impact on HSV’s transfer plans. The sums being paid out are simply too small for that. Still, every extra day Tangvik or Muheim spends in the tournament brings a small additional cash inflow into the Hanseatic club’s coffers. So there are two reasons to keep watching with excitement!
