Nigeria international Terem Moffi has officially joined Hamburg from French club Nice, taking on the No. 9 shirt. The 27-year-old striker makes the move after spending over three years with Nice, which included a six-month loan at Portuguese side Porto last season.

Transfer Details

Moffi's tenure at Nice saw him score 24 goals in 72 appearances since his arrival in January 2023. During his loan at Porto, he added two goals in 15 competitive matches. Despite facing challenges in his form while in Portugal, Moffi brings valuable experience to Hamburg, having participated in European competitions and representing Nigeria on the international stage.

Club Statements

Hamburg's board member for sport, Kathleen Krüger, expressed enthusiasm about Moffi's signing, stating, "Terem is an excellent fit to our approach. His signing gives us greater depth and variability at centre forward and increases our quality." Moffi himself shared his excitement about joining Hamburg, noting the club's global reputation and his father's immediate recognition of the team's significance.

As Hamburg prepares for the upcoming season, they will begin their campaign with a DFB Cup match against Verl on Monday night, followed by a Bundesliga opener against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday evening.
