HSV extends contract with Maximilian Rohr

Hamburger SV has set the course for a common future with its next professional: Defensive all-rounder Maximilian Rohr has been given a two-year contract as a professional player and will thus remain with the Rothosen until the summer of 2024. The 26-year-old moved from FC Carl Zeiss Jena to HSV in September 2020 and was earmarked for the regional league team. Rohr was promoted to the professional squad for the current 2021/22 season and always played in the first six competitive matches before a complex muscle injury put him out of action. On the last matchday at Fortuna Düsseldorf (1:1), Rohr celebrated his comeback. "Maxi showed just at the beginning of the season that he can be an important part of our team with his versatility and physicality. We are pleased to have him in our ranks in the future and see his athletic development as far from complete," emphasised HSV sports director Michael Mutzel. Maximilian Rohr is also pleased about the continued cooperation and explains: "I am happy to continue to be a part of HSV. I have felt very much at home here since my arrival and took the next step with my first second league games. It's my big goal to build on that now after the injury break and help the team as best as possible."
