Option to buy, buy-back clause? HSV seal deal for Kabar! | OneFootball

HSV is on the verge of signing an exciting defensive talent. According to consistent media reports, the deal with Almugera Kabar is done.

As Sky reports, the left-back from Borussia Dortmund will arrive in Hamburg this Saturday. On Sunday, the medical check and contract signing are set to follow. The structure of the transfer is as interesting as it is telling. Initially, Kabar will join on loan until the end of the season, with HSV having a purchase option of around five million euros in the summer. At the same time, BVB has secured a buy-back clause.

Kabar is expected to develop with the Red Shorts without long-term risk and, ideally, be tied to the club permanently. If the U17 World Champion makes his breakthrough, Hamburg can sign him permanently and potentially gain both sporting and financial benefits. The fact that the club was able to prevail in the race against notable competition such as Brentford, Salzburg, or even Preußen Münster underscores the conviction of the club’s sporting leadership. Above all, head coach Merlin Polzin was determined to bring in the 19-year-old.

HSV: Kabar to put pressure on Muheim

Dortmund, in turn, is not letting go of their homegrown talent completely. The agreed buy-back option shows that BVB still believes in Kabar’s development. Should the youngster take the next step at HSV, Borussia would have the opportunity to bring him back at a later date.

Fittingly, Kabar brings an exciting profile. The 1.86-meter-tall defender impresses especially with his physicality and aerial strength. At HSV, he is expected to invigorate competition on the left side and put pressure on regular starter Miro Muheim. Above all, Kabar hopes to find in Hamburg what he recently lacked in Dortmund: regular playing time at a high level.

Despite the imminent completion of this deal, HSV’s transfer market plans are not yet finished. As board member Eric Huwer confirmed in an interview with Bild, the promoted club wants to sign another winger before the end of Deadline Day.
