BREAKING NEWS: Kompany signs for HSV (1 Viewer)

[Geof]

http://www.voetbalkrant.com/ and other sources to follow in the next hours.

the fee is not known yet, but I think it's somewhere around 10M Euro.

The transfer has been confirmed by both clubs, and Vince will be presented in Hamburg later this afternoon.
This also means that Van Buyten should sign for Bayern in the next days (or hours).

Bonne chance Vincent, tu seras un grand

EDIT: following rumours, the deal would be the following:
8M now
+ 2M to be paid over a year
+ 2M if HSV qualfies for CL
+ 1Mif HSV win the Bundesliga
+ 20% of his next transfer

That will probably be a total of a bit more than 12 M Euro.

Well we knew he wouldn't stay with Anderlecht. I still think Lyon would have been better for him, but anyway good luck to him.

BTW Geof, do you know how reliable that site is? Cause a couple of days ago they said that Juve would be coming to Belgium and the Netherlands for their preseason training.

Lyon is "sexier" because of their recent Cl performances, but i rate HSV at the same level.
They're gonna fight for the title, they got a great stadium, a new sponsor (Fly Emirates $$$$$$$$$) and fantastic fans.
I really hope they'll qualify

i read it too. it seems they'll play a game in Holland (roda I think), and possibly some games in Belgium (maybe Standard?). I don't think anything is decided yet

 

[Martin]

With all the Dutchmen and now Kompany HSV is starting to look quite fashionable..

 

[Slagathor]

Yeah HSV is taking shape now. I already liked the city, this is a good development.

And Roda is in Kerkrade, practically Belgium so it makes sense Juve'd combine it with Standard.

Is Hamburg growing to be another great club in Germany?

It has always been.

Good luck Kompany *27*
Hope to see you in Juve soon.

Im just glad to see that Chelsea didnt get their hands on him.

...yet.

Im just glad to see that Chelsea didnt get their hands on him.

That's what I thought I would see after I clicked the link on the front page of the forum. Smart move by Kompany.

 

[Oggy]

I liked HSV, but I'm very dissapointing with the fact that they didin't extend contract with Sergej Barbarez. It's not because I'm from Bosnia and Sergej is Bosnian but it's because he was one of the best players at HSV and a true icon of the club. He did much for the club and al he wanted is to end career there...

Hamburger SV is a club with history. The only club that played in every Bundesliga Season, but except for last year the haven't been successfull for an long time. Right now they management is doing some good things. Van der Vaart and Kompany? Wow!

Great deal. They sell van Buyten to Bayern and get a great talent to replace him.

Yeah that's really great news. Another good buy which would suit them is J. Moutinho.

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Nice.

Bayern will get him in 2 years now.

 

[Tom]

bah, he's alright. Not that good though, not too fussed

 

[Byrone]

Nice.

Bayern will get him in 2 years now.

True,Bayern is like the Chelsea of the Bundesliga in terms of transfers,its amazing how the other teams can't compete financially with Bayern.

WHAT THE HELL IS MOGGI DOING . HOW THIS GREATTTT TRANSFER SLIP UNDER OUR NOSE ????!!!



ooh..yeah.. .... ok....

 

[Geof]

He aked for #27, but Van der Vaart got this one, so Vince gets #10.
Pretty unusual for a DC...

Vincent signed a 6 (!!) year contract in HSV. Talk about long-term vision....

In the meantime, Van Buyten signed officially a 4 year deal in Bayern: http://www.fcbayern.t-com.de/de/aktuell/news/2006/08237.php?fcb_sid=e2e0e2aa45525e9fe78f426e6542e855

Considering his age & hype,i can understand why they offered a six year contract.
