With HSV's 2:0 victory against Schalke 04 and Torino not willing to negotiate too much further, it remains a doubt whether HSV will get Zima this window.

Torino are reportedly only willing to sell David Zima for the €5.9 million they bought him from Slavia Prague (Bild).

The player has fallen out of favour for Torino and with Euro 2024 fast approaching, Zima is hoping to get some game time to be able to play for the Czech Republic.

The 1.92m central defender is one of two transfers rumoured for HSV this window with 1. FC Köln defender Noah Katterbach (who previously was on loan at HSV) rumoured to be looking to join Hamburg as well.

Zima has made five appearances this league campaign and with only a total of 87 minutes in the league this season, has failed to make any impact.

With Noah Katterbach's contract expiring this summer and the player having been demoted to the 1. FC Köln under-21s, Hamburg (HSV) look like a very likely destination for the player.
