Hamburger SV 1997-98

The Legacy

Hamburger SV finished 9th in the Bundesliga during 1997-1998, continuing their mid-table trajectory at the Volksparkstadion. Frank Pagelsdorf managed a side that leaned heavily on the attacking output of Anthony Yeboah and the versatility of Hasan Salihamidžić. Rodolfo Cardoso also provided creativity in midfield as the club balanced domestic duties. Uhlsport manufactured this third kit, which prominently displayed the Budweiser sponsor across the chest. It was a year of mid-table stability for Hamburg, though they remained a difficult side to break down when playing at home.
