Turkish winger Serhat Polat (25) will leave Halle after one and a half years. Sport director Marian Unger stated that Serhat had asked for permission to start transfer talks for personal reasons and that they had agreed. Unger added that they are in contact with him and his agent, and that it looks very much like a separation. Polat is going to Turkey and will join third division club 1461 Trabzon, where he has signed a contract until June 2029. Since the offensive player is still under contract with Hallescher FC until 2027, a transfer fee will be due. The clubs have agreed not to disclose the amount, which is in the lower five-figure range. Polat's current Transfermarkt market value is €100k.
