Millions rolling in: rush on HSV Supporters Trust! | OneFootball

Since Friday, HSV members have had the opportunity to buy shares in the newly created Supporters Trust. Interest appears to be huge.

Bild reported yesterday afternoon that four million euros had already flowed into the Supporters Trust. For comparison: FC Schalke 04 – also a club with a massive fan base – needed three days after founding its supporters’ cooperative to raise a similar amount. In the first sales phase, Hamburger SV is aiming to place 18,870 shares worth around 17 million euros with its supporters.

The money will be used to buy shares in the professional football division, which has operated separately since 2014, in order to support various infrastructure projects. This includes, among other things, the expansion of the Volksparkstadion. Every home game this season has been sold out, meaning many fans were left empty-handed when looking for tickets. While greater capacity would not eliminate the problem, it could at least reduce it somewhat.

HSV professionals also involved in the Supporters Trust

Before that, however, HSV will continue raising more money. Until May 17, club members still have the exclusive opportunity to subscribe to shares in the Supporters Trust. One share costs 887 euros for private individuals and fan clubs, with an 87-euro entry fee included in the capital reserve. Non-charitable companies can participate starting from an amount of 18,870 euros.

From May 18 onward, season ticket holders will then be allowed to access the cooperative. Ten days later, general presales are set to begin. There is said to be a waiting list for this, where interested parties can register. Several hundred people have already done so. Numerous HSV figures are already shareholders, however – including Luka and his brother Mario Vuskovic, coach Merlin Polzin, vice-captain Nicolás Capaldo, Nicolai Remberg, and academy products Otto Stange and Fabio Baldé.
