The Red Shorts’ bosses have revealed their interest in the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 attacker who is set to leave Anfield during the summer.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dirk-Kuyt-c11348, and are keen to sign him during the summer transfer window. Kuyt, who was once a first team regular at Anfield but since the introduction of Kenny
Dalglish in place of former manager, Rafael Benitez, the player has dropped down the pecking orders at the club.
The German bosses mentioned that nothing official has taken place as yet but the club is pondering upon making an offer to the Dutch international. Kuyt has been a consistent performer for the Kop but has been mostly left on the
bench despite being a much better option than http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordan-Henderson-c19102.
After being presented only with limited number of opportunities during the 2011/12 Premier League season, the attacker is certain to leave the club this summer. However, the agent is undecided if the Dutchman will move back to
Holland to reunite with his former club http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Feyenoord-c39258 or elsewhere.
Hamburg chairman, Carl-Edgar Jarchow, mentioned that the main hurdle is the wage issue. He mused that the salary structure is different in both the leagues and therefore it is yet to be seen whether Kuyt would agree making a move
to the Bundesliga having earned heavily during his six-year stay in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749.
While addressing the reporters on Kuyt’s subject, the CEO further added: "Until now there have been no negotiations. We have to sit down with the player and his agent to find a solution. The level of wages in the Premier League
is very different to ours. Whether there is the possibility of a move remains to be seen."
On the other hand, Hamburg manager, Thorsten Fink, also voiced his appreciation for the Liverpool winger. He rated him as a quality player who can also win games for his side single handedly. "He has class, and he is also a fighter.
There is nothing more that needs to be said about the quality of this player. Whether this is something we feel we want to commit to, we will see," Fink concluded.
Kuyt has so far managed to make 26 league appearances for the club this season, most of which have been as a second-half substitute. He has two goals to show from those outings compared to his 13 goals last term from 33 outings.
