Hamburg are eyeing Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner.
The Daily Star Sunday says the Dane, 25, is holding out for a bigger club, despite a difficult time on-loan at Juventus, where he has made just two league starts.
Hamburg's former Chelsea and Tottenham sporting director Frank Arnesen said: "He must take a step down and choose a club where he can rediscover the joy of playing and playing a lot.
"He has said no to me twice because he wanted to play for an even bigger club.
"He should be more humble and think about how he can get the most out of his talent."
