Hamburg are moving for Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole.
The People says Cole will be handed the chance to revive his career in the Bundesliga with Hamburg.
The German club's new sporting director Frank Arnesen is keen to give the Liverpool outcast an escape route from Anfield.
QPR, West Ham, Tottenham and Fulham have all enquired about bringing Cole back to London but cannot get close to his £90,000-a-week Liverpool wages.
A loan deal to Cole's first club West Ham was looking the most likely, until Hamburg's interest emerged.
