German Bundesliga giants Hamburg SV will promote Ghanaian international pair of Gideon Jung and Francis Adomah to their first team next season following their consistent form for their reserve side.

Hamburg manager Bruno Labbadia has decided to hand first team opportunities to the pair whether they are able to beat the drop in the Bundesliga or face relegation to the second-tier.

Jung, born in Düsseldorf, has already been promoted to the Hamburg first team but was limited to the second-string side where he has made 23 appearances and scored twice from midfield.

At 20, Jung is renowned in the third-tier league for his enormous qualities and Labbadia is keen to offer him a chance in his first team squad if he stays on as manager for next season.
