Hamburg Signs Drmic on Loan from Mochengladbach

Hamburg have completed the signing of Josip Drmic from
Borussia Monchengladbach on loan until the end of the
season.

The Switzerland striker joined Gladbach from Bayer
Leverkusen at the start of the 2015-16 campaign, but failed
to make an impact at Borussia-Park.

The 23-year-old had therefore set his sights on a temporary
move in order to get regular first-team action elsewhere and
will now continue his career at HSV.

"I am happy that the move has gone through," Drmic told the
official Hamburg website.

"I am hugely motivated and ready for the challenge ahead at
HSV. It's nothing new that Hamburg were keen to sign me.

"This is a new challenge for me. I did not play much at
Leverkusen and my time at Gladbach was not what I had
been hoping for either.

"I will get a fair chance at Hamburg. I just want to play again
and make an impact."

Drmic scored just once in 13 Bundesliga appearances for
Gladbach in the first half of the season.
