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.
