FC St. Pauli vs. Hamburger SV: Jan 23, 2026

Downs was loaned from Southampton to Hamburger SV until the end of the season, his new club announced. "With Damion, we filled an open spot in the squad early in this transfer window. He knows the Bundesliga and brings an interesting mix of quality and development potential," says sporting director Claus Costa.

Omari (knee) has trained with his teammates, according to his club.

Ando was transferred from Avispa Fukuoka to St. Pauli, his new club announced. "Tomoya's arrival gives us greater flexibility in defense, as he can play in any position within a three-man backline. In recent years, he has consistently adapted very quickly to the higher level and established himself in the national team. That's why we are convinced he can play a significant role from the outset," Sporting director Andreas Bornemann said.
