Former HSV professional Levin Öztunali has found a new club.

After several months without a club, the grandson of German striker icon Uwe Seeler is joining third-division side SG Sonnenhof Großaspach. The club has not disclosed details regarding the length of the contract.

Öztunali was most recently under contract at Hamburger SV, where in the end he only featured for the reserve team in the Regionalliga Nord. His contract with the "Rothosen" expired last summer.

190 Bundesliga appearances

In Großaspach, the 30-year-old is now expected to help secure survival, with the newly promoted side currently sitting in the relegation zone in 18th place in the 3. Liga.

The 30-time Germany U21 international brings the experience of 190 German Bundesliga appearances (twelve goals, 26 assists) with him to Baden-Württemberg. In the German top flight, he played for Bayer Leverkusen, SV Werder Bremen, FSV Mainz 05, and Union Berlin.
