Walter was already on the brink before Christmas
The six-time German champions have already failed five times in their attempt to finally get promoted to the top league. After the poor sporting performance of recent months, the HSV management seems to see the danger of losing its great goal this season as well.
Before Christmas, Walter was already on the brink. He then received another clear order from sporting director Boldt and sporting director Claus Costa to stabilize his team.
