Back in team training

Nadir has rejoined team training with Hamburger SV, according to HSV24.

Analysis: Nadir had been dealing with muscular problems that limited him to individual sessions in recent days, with the club citing workload management as the reason for keeping him out of group work. His return to full training confirms the issue has cleared up without complication. Nadir is expected to continue building toward full match involvement as the club's preseason continues.

Continues individual work

Nadir remains sidelined from full team training, only completing an individual session on the pitch Thursday, according to HSV24.

Analysis: Nadir had to end Wednesday's training session early during the club's camp in Herzogenaurach, and the club cited workload management as the reason for keeping him out of group work, aiming to prevent the muscular discomfort from worsening. No specific timeline for his return to full training has been disclosed. Nadir is expected to continue his individualized program as HSV's preseason continues.

Signs with Hamburger

Nadir signed with Hamburger SV on a free transfer from Marseille, according to the club. "Bilal is a player who always wants the ball and can change the rhythm of a game," Sporting director Claus Costa said.

Analysis: Nadir made 53 competitive appearances for Marseille over five seasons, scoring two goals with five assists, including four Champions League and two Europa League appearances, after breaking into the first team in 2023 following his move from Nice's academy. The 22 year old midfielder was called up to Morocco's senior national team in March 2025 but has yet to earn his first cap, and he will wear the number 4 shirt at Hamburg as he begins the next chapter of his career.

Trains fully, should be available

Nadir (hamstring) returned to full team training Friday and should be an option for Sunday's season finale against Rennes, the club posted.

Analysis: Nadir had been ruled out for the time being after suffering a new hamstring injury during the defeat against Lorient, making his return to collective sessions a more positive update than initially anticipated. The midfielder has mainly been a rotational option for Marseille this season, and his potential availability for the final fixture of the campaign would give coach Habib Beye a useful depth option to call upon as the Olympiens push for European qualification on the final day.

Suffers new setback

Nadir (undisclosed) is ruled out for the time being due to a new injury, according to coach Habib Beye.

Analysis: Nadir suffered a new injury during the defeat against Lorient and while no details have been provided on the nature of the issue or a return timeline, his availability for upcoming fixtures is completely unclear. Nadir has mainly operated in a rotational capacity for Marseille this season, so his absence is unlikely to significantly disrupt the starting lineup as the club pushes through the final stretch of their European qualification push.
