I\u2019m glad to be here, that\u2019s why HSV is always an obvious option for me.\u201d&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t a given that the German-Portuguese dual national would start the season as Merlin Polzin\u2019s number one, despite wearing the shirt to match. With Hamburg having signed Daniel Peretz on loan from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/tag\/bayern-munich\/\" data-type=\"post_tag\" data-id=\"455\">Bayern Munich<\/a>, Heuer Fernandes had to fend off competition from the Israeli to keep the position he has held for the past six seasons.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking about his and HSV\u2019s good start to the season, he remained modest: <em>&#8220;We&#8217;ve only completed the sixth matchday and still have a long way to go to achieve our goal \u2013 that&#8217;s my focus at the moment.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He remains calm about his contract situation: <em>&#8220;I don&#8217;t see the topic of contract extension as priority number one at the moment, especially since it has not yet been discussed with those responsible.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heuer Fernandes is clearly proud of his HSV career thus far. He is the second-highest appearance maker in the Hamburg squad, behind Bakary Jatta:<em> &#8220;I&#8217;m proud of it. That&#8217;s not always easy and every day in such a special position as goalkeeper,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The last goalkeeper to be number 1 for HSV for so long in recent decades was Richard Golz. It&#8217;s something extraordinary when my name is mentioned afterwards.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\">GGFN<\/a> | Harry Good\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hamburg goalkeeper Daniel Heuer Fernandes has opened up to Sport Bild about his future, with his current contract due to expire next summer.\u00a0 When asked whether he still sees his&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12312401,"featured_media":104372,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11,343,18],"tags":[449,2440,509,1056],"class_list":["post-104371","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bundesliga","category-hamburger-sv","category-news","tag-bundesliga","tag-daniel-heuer-fernandes","tag-hamburg","tag-hsv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12312401"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104371"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104371\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":104373,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104371\/revisions\/104373"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104372"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104371"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104371"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
