Leeds United are interested in signing Hamburg striker Pierre-Michel Lasogga on loan.
The Whites are looking to do further business in the remainder of the summer transfer window and are aiming to strengthen both ends of the pitch.
According to German daily Bild, the Yorkshire giants are keen on taking Lasogga on loan for the season and have put out the feelers to Hamburg over a potential deal.
Hamburg could be interested in offloading Lasogga to Leeds, not least because they would be able to shed his hefty €3.4m per year salary, although they could have to pay a portion of it while he is in England.
How keen the striker is on the move remains unclear, especially as his girlfriend is expecting a baby in early September.

Lasogga, 25, has been linked with moving to England in the past, but has continued to ply his trade in the Bundesliga.
He scored regularly during a spell at Hertha Berlin and initially made a big impression when on loan at Hamburg, before completing a permanent move to the club.
But this summer Lasogga has been on the fringes at Hamburg and is coach Markus Gisdol's fifth choice striker.
