stunning start to the season/amazing transfer deal

No, definitely not nicknames!
"Hammer" here means something amazing/surprising/shocking/stunning/headline-making. "Auftakt" means the beginning of first match of a season. "Transfer" can mean either the transfer of a player from one club to another or a match between teams at the bottom of the league table.
