Striker search over? HSV consider bringing Stange back this winter | OneFootball

Speculations about a possible new striker joining in winter are already dominating the headlines. However, HSV might have a solution within their own ranks.

As the winter transfer market slowly approaches, HSV is busy planning behind the scenes. After the promotion and the major changes in the summer, the situation is clear: The squad is large, competition is fierce, yet the decisive striking power is especially lacking in the forward line.

After ten matchdays, only a single league goal has been scored by a true number nine. It's no surprise, then, that rumors are already circulating about the Rothosen wanting to sign a new goal-getter in the winter.

However, the Hanseatics already have a highly talented striker: Otto Stange. The 18-year-old was loaned to SV 07 Elversberg on the last day of the summer transfer period to gain more match experience. He already has two goals and two assists to his name, even though he has only been used as a substitute. Recently, Stange even scored twice in three matches for the German U19 team. The stats are promising, and his enormous potential is evident.

HSV's Winter Plans Still Open

While the management continues to explore the market and consider external solutions, according to Mopo information, signing a new striker is not yet a done deal, contrary to some reports.

This is where Stange comes into play. As Mopo further reports, HSV has the option to terminate the loan already in winter. Stange is supposed to take the next steps in Elversberg, but this plan is not necessarily set in stone. Especially since alternatives in the squad are faltering and summer signing Yussuf Poulsen has not yet been the hoped-for reinforcement due to persistent injury problems.
