Fernando Dickes, a 17-year-old top talent and U-18 national goalkeeper of the DFB, has been signed by Hamburger SV. Born in Halle an der Saale, he hails from the youth team of RB Leipzig where he achieved victory in the Sachsenpokal with the U-19 team. He is set to commence training with the professional squad from the beginning of the preparation on July 2 and is anticipated to primarily play in the youth teams. Stefan Kuntz, the sports director, expressed that their goalkeeping scouting had been closely monitoring Fernando's development over the years and conveyed their satisfaction with his decision to join HSV. Sport director Claus Costa remarked that Fernando's modern and balanced approach to goalkeeping, combined with his outstanding physical attributes, renders him an extremely promising prospect. This transfer is part of HSV's strategic adjustments in their goalkeeper team, a decision influenced by Matheo Raab's desire for a change.
