"Convinced by his potential": HSV confirm Tangvik transfer! | OneFootball

HSV has made the expected transfer of Sander Tangvik official. The 23-year-old is moving from the traditional Norwegian club Rosenborg BK to the Elbe.

After passing his medical, Tangvik signed a long-term contract until 2030. According to a Bild report, Hamburg will pay a base transfer fee of 2.6 million euros to Trondheim for the Norwegian national goalkeeper. Through performance-based bonus payments, the total sum could rise to as much as four million euros.

Tangvik is a native of Trondheim and spent nine years under contract with BK. He went through all the Norwegian youth national teams and was even recently part of the senior national squad. His big goal is to participate in the World Cup next summer.

At HSV, however, the roles are not expected to change—at least for now: Daniel Heuer Fernandes will remain the number one goalkeeper for the second half of the season. In the long term, however, the club’s management believes Tangvik has the potential to become the new number one between the posts.

HSV’s New Signing Has “Ideal Qualities for the Goalkeeper Position”

Sporting director Claus Costa describes his new signing’s qualities as follows: “With his height, reach, and athleticism, Sander brings ideal qualities for the goalkeeper position. In addition, he is quick to react on the line and courageous in defending his area. We are absolutely convinced of his potential and want to develop it together with our goalkeeper team in the coming years as best as possible.” Board member Eric Huwer also speaks in the club’s official press release of a “medium- to long-term solution beyond the summer.”

Tangvik, who will be playing outside Norway for the first time, is eager for the new challenge. “Hamburger SV is a club full of history and tradition, which I have known since my childhood and have followed even in recent times. Moreover, the Bundesliga is a very competitive and strong league. For me, this move is exactly the right step to continue developing at the highest level,” said the youngster.

In the Hanseatic city, he will meet his compatriot Alexander Røssing-Lelesiit, who joined Volkspark during the last winter transfer window. Both are also represented by the same agency.
