HHSV is threatened with the loss of a promising talent. According to media reports, FC Turin has taken notice of Shafiq Nandja.
Surprise at the Volkspark: FC Turin has according to Bild informationn contacted Hamburger SV and made an offer for the only 18-year-old central defender Shafiq Nandja.
The Italian first division club apparently wants to lure the robust defender away from Hamburg with immediate effect. Nandja is considered one of the most exciting talents in HSV's youth development. Although he is still young enough to play in the A-youth team, the youngster has been a regular player in the U21 team since the start of the season. He played the first two Regionalliga games over the full distance.
His development is remarkable: Nandja came to the Rothosen from Harburg TS in 2018, and just two months ago, he extended his contract by one season until 2026.
The interest from Italy is no coincidence: Turin observed Nandja recently at the "Tournoi Européen U21" in Brittany, where the HSV talents achieved a remarkable third place. There, he apparently convinced the scouts of the Serie A club sustainably.
As Bild reports, the Hanseatic club now has a written offer of around 300,000 euros transfer fee. Additionally, there are possible bonus payments and a share in a later resale.
How the Hamburgers will react to this offer is still open. Sports director Claus Costa faces a difficult decision: should he keep the talented defender and continue to develop him or cash in a six-figure sum for a player who has not yet proven himself at professional level?
