Secondary ticketing platform Viagogo has added top-level German side HSV Hamburg to its portfolio of soccer partnerships.

The London-based company has become the official ticket resale platform for the club for the current season.

Steve Roest, a Viagogo spokesman, said: "HSV is a great partner and we're looking forward to future cooperation. Now we can give HSV fans the chance to come to watch officially sold out games and fill seats that would otherwise remain empty. That benefits everyone, not least the atmosphere in the stadium."
