A move back to Germany looks to be on the cards for former VfL Wolfsburg and 1. FC Köln centre-back Sebastiaan Bornauw.
According to Sky Germany, Hamburger SV are in advanced talks with Leeds United over a deal to sign the 27-year-old defender.
The Bundesliga outfit are hoping to bring Bornauw in on loan with an option to buy.
With Leeds having agreed a deal to sign another centre-back in Nico Elvedi from Borussia Mönchengladbach, the path is now clear for Bornauw to make the switch to HSV.
Leeds reportedly paid €6 million to sign Bornauw from VfL Wolfsburg in the summer of 2025. The Belgian defender made 17 appearances in his first season with the English club.
