Hamburg sign Chelsea hotshot

Hamburger SV have confirmed the signing of youngster Gokhan Tore from Chelsea on their official website.

The Turkish midfielder is the third player to arrive at Hamburg from Chelsea, following the transfers of Michael Mancienne and Jacopo Sala.

Tore, who only joined Chelsea in January 2009, has signed a three-year deal at Imtech Arena.

“I look forward to HSV. It is a club with great tradition, which is located in a great city. I will do my best for this club,” Tore told Hamburg TV.

Hamburg sporting director Frank Arnesen says the 19-year-old will be given time to properly develop at the club.

“Gokhan is a young and extremely talented player, he is left-footed and an offensive.

“He is also a physically strong player with good vision. We must, and will, give him the necessary time he needs to continue his positive development in recent years.”
