Toni Kroos became another Hamburg fan after the historic German club announced the acquisition of Steffen Baumgart, a very good friend of the Real Madrid midfielder. “Now I’m becoming an HSV fan, I’m walking away from the faith. All the best, Baumi,” Kroos wrote on his Twitter account.
Steffen Baumgart, 52 years old, is originally from Rostock and played for Hansa between 1994 and 1998. Coincidentally, Toni Kroos took the first steps of his career at Hansa Rostock before jumping through the youth ranks of Bayern. from Munich at the age of 16 .
Baumi, as he is affectionately known, has the difficult mission of returning Hamburg to the Bundesliga. The Hanseatic team suffered its first and only relegation to Bundesliga 2 in 2018 and have since failed to make the top tier of German football.
Hamburg is currently in third position, seven points behind leader St. Pauli and four behind KSV Holstein. “We not only want to talk about what promotion means, we also want to achieve it, if it can be this year. That is why I am here. It is important that we demonstrate a high level of aggressiveness in the game, have the ball, be brave and always try to play in the opposing goal,” he said in his presentation.
Hamburg, through their social networks, responded to Kroos with a photomontage in which he appears with the bandana of the Hanseatic club. “Man Toni Kroos, now we are united.”
