Hamburg is still waiting for a go from the Spurs to finalize the transfer of Luka Vuskovic. However, if the deal fails, they want to be prepared.
The patience of the people in the Volkspark is currently being put to the test: although HSV is said to have already agreed on a transfer with Luka Vuskovic, the final decision lies with Tottenham Hotspur. The English want to carefully consider which club to loan their coveted central defender talent to. A decision was also awaited on Tuesday and could take several more days.
According to the Hamburger Abendblatt, sporting director Stefan Kuntz and sports director Claus Costa are therefore pursuing multiple paths. While they hope for a signal from North London every day, talks with other candidates for the defense are running in parallel. The officials want to secure themselves in case of a Tottenham veto, so as not to be left without reinforcement.
Ideally, a new signing should be presented by the end of the week. Preferably Vuskovic. However, there is no fixed deadline from the Spurs, which makes personnel planning significantly more difficult. Since other transfers are also to be prioritized.
Because in addition to a central defender, the Hamburgers are also looking for a creative midfielder and are also observing the market for other positions.
There could be movement towards the end of the transfer period on September 1st. Players who receive little or no playing time at other clubs in the first weeks of the season could suddenly become interesting for HSV. The Rothosen do not rule out that even more than two new signings could find their way to the Elbe.
Currently, however, there is no indication of a departure for transfer candidates Sebastian Schonlau, Guilherme Ramos, Silvan Hefti, or Bakery Jatta. They have three weeks to find new perspectives. Otherwise, their subordinate role at HSV will remain for the time being.
