Overview

  • The total package was modest: HSV will pay around €1.5 million (including bonuses) to Leipzig, and RB Leipzig will provide Poulsen with roughly €1 million in compensation for his remaining contract term.
  • Poulsen underwent his medical and is set to join the HSV squad in Herzogenaurach this week, gearing up for a July 19 friendly against Sturm Graz.
  • He departs Leipzig as the club’s all-time record appearance holder with 425 games, having netted 95 goals and tallied 66 assists over 12 seasons.
  • Citing limited starts under Leipzig’s new coach, Poulsen pursued this move to secure regular first-team football and assume a leadership role in Hamburg.
  • Newly promoted HSV has added experienced reinforcements to its attack, making Poulsen its sixth summer signing as it readies for a top-flight campaign following Selke’s exit to Istanbul.
