HSV caused a stir on Deadline Day with the commitment of Fábio Vieira. The transfer of the Portuguese could turn out to be a real bargain.
Hamburger SV pulled off a real coup with the last-minute loan of Fábio Vieira. The playmaker moved from FC Arsenal to the Rothosen on the last day of the transfer period. Initially, the 25-year-old signed for one year - and according to information from Sport Bild, for a surprisingly low loan fee of under 400,000 euros. This can decrease towards zero if Vieira regularly starts in the first eleven. For the promoted team, the offensive player could thus prove to be a real bargain.
But what about the long term? HSV has secured a purchase option that really has it all: The North club would have to put around 20 million euros on the table to take Vieira under contract permanently after the loan expires. This would make him by far the most expensive purchase in the club's history. This status is currently held by Filip Kostic, who came from VfB Stuttgart in 2016 for a hefty 14 million euros.
However: The Hanseatics are not under pressure. The deadline does not expire until May 2026, which gives those responsible plenty of time to assess the sporting and financial development.
One thing is clear: Arsenal would earn a share of any future deals if Vieira were to be sold. The English top club has secured a resale participation. This is said to be between 10 and 20 percent. Also relevant: If a permanent transfer were to actually take place, the left-footer would sign a four-year contract at Volkspark.
The final decision will now largely depend on whether Vieira makes a hit in Hamburg. Sporting director Stefan Kuntz and Director of Sport Claus Costa are firmly convinced of the great talent of the midfield man. Above all, Kuntz has had a high opinion of the former Portuguese junior national player for many years.
