Hamburg coach Martin Jol continues to court Real Madrid
midfielder Rafael van der Vaart.
Jol wants the Dutchman as a replacement for Brazilian flop
Thiago Neves and is exploring the possibility of bringing the
midfielder back to the Bundesliga in June.
He said: "We know how he feels, because he likes to play. He
should not be happy and we hope its a sign to see what can happen.
One thing is clear: if he decides to return to Germany, there's no
other club better for him than Hamburg.
"Here he was a star. In Real, he is one of many. If he stayed
here, he could have become a legend of the club, like Uwe Seeler
and Kevin Keegan."
