The signs are increasing at HSV that the time together with Emir Sahiti is coming to an end. In sporting terms, the 27-year-old practically no longer plays a role in the current Bundesliga routine.

The clear defeat at TSG Hoffenheim (1:4) recently sent another signal: Despite numerous absences in the offensive and midfield areas, Sahiti did not find a place in the squad. Coach Merlin Polzin instead opted for Immanuel Pherai, who had only just returned to team training.

For Sahiti, such a situation is no longer an exception, but rather the bitter reality. After two starts at the beginning of the season, he was hardly considered in the league, collecting playing minutes almost exclusively in the DFB-Pokal. Most recently, he was allowed to come on as a substitute in the round of 16 defeat against Holstein Kiel.

During the winter break, the Kosovan international now wants clarity. According to the Hamburger Abendblatt, a conversation with the coach and sporting director Claus Costa is supposed to show whether there is still a sporting perspective for him at Volkspark at all. Internally, however, it is acknowledged: Sahiti will only get real playing time if he changes clubs.

HSV would likely let Sahiti go

Basically, HSV would be willing to take such a step. If there are concrete offers, those responsible would not stand in the way of the offensive player. But this is exactly where the crux lies: Sahiti’s salary. For several potential interested parties, it is considered too high, which is why there has been no real demand so far.

This threatens a scenario in which, despite thoughts of leaving, Sahiti will continue to train with HSV after the turn of the year, without any realistic prospect of playing time. His behavior within the club is highly valued. He is considered a positive character, creates a good atmosphere in the dressing room, and always shows professionalism. Nevertheless, his sporting chances in the Hanseatic city are now extremely limited.
