Founded in 1907, SV Elversberg represents Spiesen-Elversberg in Saarland and carries the distinctive identity of a compact, community-rooted German club. Known locally as Die Elv, the black-and-white side has built a remarkable modern ascent from regional football into the professional national leagues. Its home, Ursapharm-Arena an der Kaiserlinde, reflects that progression: a close-to-the-pitch venue developed for a higher level without losing its local character. This team page brings together the club’s current football snapshot, recorded movement, coaching history and competition footprint.

Transfers Synthesis
The movement picture is mixed rather than defined by a single transaction type. The arrivals listed for the period include permanent transfers, free-agent additions, loans and returns from loan. The departures show the same variety in reverse, with players leaving permanently, becoming free agents, moving temporarily or returning to parent clubs. Several names connect both sides of the cycle: B. Conté, Jarzinho Ataide Adriano de Nascimento Malanga, I. Pherai, Ł. Poręba and Otto Emerson Stange are recorded in loan-related movements, while J. Çeka and F. Gerezgiher return after earlier loan exits. This gives the squad turnover a clear loan-management dimension alongside permanent recruitment and player releases. The dates stretch from August 2025 to July 2026, and the listed movements are a partial record rather than a complete balance of arrivals and departures. No transfer fees are recorded, so the pattern is best understood through its types, timing and pathways rather than financial totals.
Leagues SV Elversberg has participated in
SV Elversberg’s recorded competition footprint includes the 2. Bundesliga and DFB Pokal through 2025, with both having recent entries in the timeline. Friendlies Clubs is also recorded through 2025. The club has an earlier 2024 Bundesliga entry, but that participation is historical rather than current. The 3. Liga record runs from 2013 to 2022, and Regionalliga - SudWest from 2019 to 2021, placing both in the historical section of the timeline. Together, these entries trace Elversberg’s progression from regional and third-tier football into the professional second tier, while the DFB Pokal provides a recurring national cup presence.
More about SV Elversberg
Sportvereinigung 07 Elversberg e. V., commonly known as SV Elversberg or Die Elv, was founded in 1907 and is rooted in Spiesen-Elversberg in Saarland. The club’s black-and-white identity reflects a traditional local sporting culture, while its modern reputation comes from a disciplined climb through Germany’s football pyramid. For much of its history, Elversberg operated in regional and semi-professional levels before progressing into the national professional leagues. The recorded competition history captures that route through Regionalliga - SudWest, 3. Liga and 2. Bundesliga, alongside regular DFB Pokal participation.
The club’s home is the Ursapharm-Arena an der Kaiserlinde, historically known as the Waldstadion an der Kaiserlinde. Its name refers to a historic local lime tree, and the ground remains closely tied to the surrounding Saarland landscape. Phased improvements have developed a once modest provincial venue into a modern arena suited to the club’s rise, while preserving a close relationship between supporters and the pitch.
Elversberg’s culture is commonly associated with collective discipline, work rate and continuity rather than star-driven recruitment. That outlook aligns with an emphasis on identifying undervalued talent and building a competitive group with regional connections. The NLZ Saar youth centre forms part of this development ecosystem, providing a structural focus on player development. Regional corporate support, notably the long-term association with Ursapharm, has accompanied the club’s operational and infrastructural growth.
The result is a distinctive German football story: a small Saarland club whose patient organisation and sustained sporting progress have carried it well beyond its traditional regional setting. Its identity remains grounded in community scale, black-and-white tradition and a modern professional structure, with the Kaiserlinde serving as both home venue and symbol of that continuing evolution.
