Sonny Kittel headed to MLS – Four clubs interested in Hamburg playmaker

By


Bild report 

German club Hamburger SV are set to lose playmaker and topscorer Sonny Kittel. The 29-year-old, whose contract will expire next summer has already told the club that he sees his future elsewhere. Kittel has been instrumental for HSV this season scoring nine goals and 16 assists in 33 2. Bundesliga games. 

Update 16:53 Eastern: Bild has added Sporting Kansas City, D.C. United and Real Salt Lake City as potential landing spots for Kittel. Taylor Twellman from ESPN, however, reported Sunday that Sporting KC are in advanced talks with Erik Thommy, signing both would be difficult. One source has suggested to Transfermarkt that New England Revolution are on the lookout for a player like Kittel and also have the financials to complete a deal. 

Both the player and the 2. Bundesliga club have, therefore, agreed to go their separate ways. On Monday, Bild reported that the 29-year-old has received an offer from an unnamed Major League Soccer club and a transfer is all but agreed upon. Kittel will significantly increase his salary. Furthermore, HSV will receive around €1 million. 

Kittel to MLS? – Has scored 30 goals and 33 assists for HSV

Kittel can play both as a playmaker and on both wings. An Eintracht Frankfurt product, Kittel joined Hamburg from Ingolstadt in 2019 and has scored 30 goals and 33 assists in 104 games for HSV across all competitions.
