Hamburger SV wants to sign Elias Baum and has already presented their concepts and sporting plans to him. According to 'Morgenpost', it is a close competition with an uncertain outcome. A final personal meeting with the new Frankfurt coach Adi Hütter is expected to take place next week, after which a decision will be made. Frankfurt is, in principle, ready to let Elias Baum go, but this could change if Hütter plans with the player. Elias Baum's contract with Eintracht Frankfurt runs until 2028.

According to Bild, a further loan for the 2024/25 season is not an option for either Eintracht Frankfurt or Elias Baum, and the transfer fee for the player is expected to be between three and five million euros.

Hamburger SV is making its interest in Elias Baum of Eintracht Frankfurt more concrete. Bild reports that the clubs have held initial talks, during which HSV officials inquired about the transfer conditions for the Germany U21 international. The same report indicates that Elias Baum wants to make a fresh start elsewhere next season.

According to a report from Hamburger Abendblatt, Hamburger SV is considering a move for 20-year-old Elias Baum. The German U-international is contracted to Eintracht Frankfurt until 2028 but may leave this summer due to a lack of playing opportunities. Baum returned to Frankfurt last summer following a loan spell at SV Elversberg, where he provided seven assists in 37 matches, but he only made five brief appearances in the past season. HSV reportedly sees an opportunity to sign the right-back, who could replace William Mikelbrencis in Hamburg, as Mikelbrencis is expected to leave the club when his contract expires this summer. Baum has 4 caps for Germany U21, and his market value is listed as €4.00m by Transfermarkt.
