Career
Early years
After playing for the youth teams of 1. FC Gladbeck, Schalke 04, Rot-Weiss Essen, SG Wattenscheid 09 and VfL Wolfsburg, Lasogga attracted the attention of Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen, who signed him in 2009. Lasogga quickly established himself in Leverkusen's youth team, making 25 appearances in the 2009–10 season.[1] He scored 25 times in the U-19 Bundesliga West, making him the league's top goalscorer,[1] and helped secure Leverkusen a spot in the national finals,[2] which they lost 1–0 to Hansa Rostock. Towards the end of the season, Lasogga made his senior debut, making five appearances for Bayer 04 Leverkusen's reserves in the Regionalliga West during the 2009–10 season.[3]
First experiences in the Bundesliga
After just one season with Leverkusen, he left the club, and signed for 2. Bundesliga club Hertha BSC on a three-year contract.[4]
Lasogga impressed during Hertha's preseason friendlies, scoring six goals,[1] but injured himself just days before the opening fixture.[5] After missing the first five league matches, Lasogga made his professional debut against Energie Cottbus on 24 September 2010.[6] Three weeks later, Lasogga featured in Hertha's starting formation for the first time. He managed to take full advantage of the opportunity and scored twice.[7] His success continued; after the winter break, he successfully replaced Rob Friend in Hertha's starting formation, starting all but three games ahead of the Canadian. At the end of the season, Hertha was promoted to the Bundesliga after one season in the second division. He finished the 2010–11 season with 13 goals in 25 league appearances,[8] an appearance in the German Cup,[9] and three goals in five appearances for Hertha BSC II in the Regionalliga Nord.[9]
In the Bundesliga, Lasogga remained a key player for Hertha. He made his Bundesliga debut on the first matchday,[10] and scoring for the first time two weeks later. By the winter break, Lasogga had started fourteen of Hertha's seventeen Bundesliga matches, and scored six times. He started all four matches after the break under Michael Skibbe. However, Skibbe's successor as manager, Otto Rehhagel relied on him less. At the end of his first Bundesliga season, Lasogga had played a total of 32 matches, including 23 starts, and scored eight times,[11] making him Hertha's top goalscorer. On the final matchday, Lasogga sustain a severe injury, tearing his ACL, and was not expected to return to the pitch until early November.[12] In the end, he didn't make his comeback until the following calendar year, making a brief appearance at the end of Hertha's match against Jahn Regensburg on 3 February 2013.
He scored the only goal in the 1–0 win against SV Sandhausen on 21 April 2013, to ensure Hertha BSC's their direct promotion for the 2013–14 Bundesliga season.[13][14] He finished the 2012–13 season with a goal in seven appearances and an appearance in the German Cup.[15]
Hamburger SV
On 2 September 2013, Lasogga signed a one-year loan deal with Hamburger SV.[16] He scored a hat-trick in only his second start for Hamburg, playing against Nuremberg on 6 October 2013. He scored 13 goals in the 20 league matches for the 2013–14 season.[17] After the end of the season, he signed a five-year contract with Hamburg on 4 July 2014.[18] He scored four goals in 26 league appearances during the 2014–15 season.[19] He started the 2015–16 season with three goals in four league appearances[20] including scoring two of three goals in a 3–0 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach.[21]

Lasogga was nominated on 16 May 2013 by former U-21 coach Rainer Adrion for the preliminary squad for the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship,[23] and made in on 28 May 2013into the final squad.[24] In the first group match against the Netherlands that Germany lost with 2–3, Lasogga stood in the starting line-up and was substituted. The second group game against Spain on 12 June 2013 was his last appearance for the U-21 team. Germany lost the game 0–1 and was eliminated early. In the third group match against Russia, he and some other players were not used. After the tournament, Lasogga was no longer eligible to play because of his age.
