HSV surprises with debt freedom and young talent!
HSV surprises with debt freedom and young talent!
Leipzig, Deutschland - An exciting chapter begins for Hamburger SV: The club has signed the 17-year-old goalkeeper Fernando Dickes from RB Leipzig. With a height of 1.93 meters, Dickes brings the ideal physical requirements and convinces with his modern goalkeeper game, as sports director Claus Costa emphasizes. The change is free of charge, which is good business for the association. Dickes looks optimistically into the future and would like to develop at the HSV after he has already played 26 competitive games for Leipzig last season, including four in the UEFA Youth League.
While the HSV strengthened, there are also significant changes in the club management. Henrik Köncke was elected as the new president with 65.71 percent of the vote. The 34-year-old, formerly a passionate ultra fan, sees himself as a bridge builder and emphasizes that the Ultras will not take over in the club. The other candidates include Kai Eselsgroth, who received 29.06 percent of the vote, and Frank Ockens with 5.22 percent. In the election, almost 1,200 of the more than 127,000 members made their vote.
financial recovery of the association
The financial situation of the HSV is particularly remarkable: the association is now debt -free in its documented history. CFO Eric Huwer announced that the net financial liabilities at the end of the financial year are zero. This is a huge step after the HSV previously had to fight with debt of 75 million euros. The early return of the stadium loan two years earlier was a particularly important progress.
An urgency application to suspend the choice due to the non -approval of Felix Magath as a presidential candidate did not receive the necessary majority. Only 8.49 percent voted for the fact that membership is behind the current course of the association. Laura Ludwig has also prevailed as a new vice president and received over 90 percent of the votes.
promotion of young talent in focus
parallel to the changes at the top of the club, the HSV plans a young recent revolution. The U19 and U17 have already successfully reached the round of 16 of the DFB youth league, but there is a need for optimization in the C and D youth sectors. A new concept called "Hamburg is growing" is now to be developed to support the Hamburg amateur clubs. The goal is to create professional structures and better training for youth coaches. The vision is to produce more talents for HSV and also for FC St. Pauli and to promote the strengths of the individual players through a uniform training methodology.
All of these steps show that Hamburger SV is determined to develop on both and next to the square and to act strongly in the upcoming Bundesliga season. It remains exciting how the situation in the club will develop.
