Staying at Hamburg ‘is an option’ for Arsenal’s Fábio Vieira | OneFootball

On loan from Arsenal, Hamburg’s Fábio Vieira (25) is enjoying a standout campaign at the Bundesliga club, scoring two goals and creating four in 15 league games.

Speaking exclusively to Bild, Vieira was asked if he would remain at HSV beyond the summer.

“I don’t yet have any idea what will happen at the end of the season,” he said. “My focus is on HSV, but I have a contract with Arsenal until 2027 and I will respect that.”

Hamburg do retain a €20m purchase option to sign Vieira, but the Bundesliga returnees will look to re-negotiate their agreement with Arsenal to lower the fee.

Should Merlin Polzin’s side avoid relegation, then Vieira’s stay at HSV could be extended.

“Staying in Hamburg is one of the options,” Vieira added.

“I really like the city, it’s very beautiful and they have a large Portuguese community here. When I’m longing for Portuguese people or food, I just have to go to the Portuguese quarter. This way, the city makes it easy to feel at home.”
