Hamburg close Adeline deal – push to sign Arsenal’s Fábio Vieira permanently continues

Hamburger SV have agreed a deal to sign ESTAC Troyes midfielder Martin Adeline, according to Sky Germany.

The Bundesliga side will pay €4 million to sign the French attacking midfielder, who is set to sign a contract running until 2030.

When reports of HSV’s interest in Adeline first emerged, it was suggested that the 22-year-old could arrive as a replacement for Fábio Vieira, who has returned to Arsenal following his successful loan spell.

However, according to Sky Germany, Adeline’s transfer is completely separate from HSV’s pursuit of Vieira, with Die Rothosen still determined to sign the Portuguese midfielder on a permanent basis.

HSV have been in talks with Arsenal over Vieira for some time, but the two clubs have yet to reach an agreement.
