Signs permanently with Hamburger
Gronbaek has signed a permanent contract with Hamburg from Stade Rennais after the Bundesliga club exercised their option following his loan spell in the second half of the season, the club announced.
Analysis: Gronbaek made seven competitive appearances for Hamburg since joining in January, contributing one goal and two assists including a direct involvement in both goals of the crucial 2-1 away victory in Frankfurt that effectively secured the club's Bundesliga survival, earning him the man of the match award. Sporting director Claus Costa praised his football intelligence, technical quality and tactical flexibility, highlighting his ability to make an immediate impact in the squad both on and off the pitch and noting that his performances had earned him a recall to the Danish national team. Gronbaek himself expressed his delight at making the move permanent, describing the last six months as going very well and expressing his excitement about establishing himself in the Bundesliga with Hamburg heading into the 2026/27 season.
Assists in 3-2 win
Gronbaek assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and four chances created in Sunday's 3-2 victory over SC Freiburg.
Analysis: Gronbaek started his fifth game in a row, having been available for them in the last six games. He created four chances in the game, having created three chances in his previous starts. He scored and assisted in the previous game to get all three of his goal involvements in the last two games.
Goal, assist in win
Gronbaek scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Eintracht Frankfurt.
Analysis: Gronbaek scored and assisted during Saturday's win, his first two goal contributions since making the switch to HSV. It was a real sign of what he can do in the Bundesliga, shining off the left flank and causing issues throughout. He could be a big contributor if he can stay fit to close the campaign.
