Team of the season: two HSV stars are nominated! | OneFootball

As a newly promoted side, HSV have enjoyed a relatively stable season so far. Two professionals have played a decisive part in that.

The reward: Daniel Heuer Fernandes and Luka Vuskovic have made the shortlist for the “Team of the Season” in EA Sports FC 26 . Fans now have the chance to vote both of them into the final Bundesliga team. It will be announced on May 1.

Heuer Fernandes in particular has been impressing for months with consistently strong performances. According to Bundesliga.de, he has played “a decisive role as a reliable last line of defense” in “HSV, as a promoted team, conceding as few goals as clubs chasing European qualification.”

In addition, the 33-year-old’s leadership qualities are also highlighted. In the goalkeeper category, he is now up against Noah Atubolu (SC Freiburg), Oliver Baumann (TSG Hoffenheim), Gregor Kobel (Borussia Dortmund) and Moritz Nicolas (Borussia Mönchengladbach).

HSV stars face fierce competition

Vuskovic’s development has been no less impressive. The 19-year-old center-back, currently on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, established himself as the leader of the defense immediately after arriving last summer.

Bundesliga.de describes him as “one of the Bundesliga’s breakout stars” and goes even further: already now, he could “probably count himself among the best defenders in the world.” His competition in defense includes Dayot Upamecano (FC Bayern), Nico Schlotterbeck (Borussia Dortmund) and Alejandro Grimaldo (Bayer Leverkusen), among others.
