Van Der Vaart, 25, moved to Hamburg back in 2005 amid intense speculation that he was set for a move to the Premier League. He also been linked with a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid in recent months as it becomes more and more likely that he will leave Hamburg this summer.
Former Chelsea boss Avram Grant was said to be interested in signing Van Der Vaart before his sacking last week. It is likely that Chelsea will have to pay at least £15 million for Van Der Vaart and in my view that would be a terrific bit of business for the London club.
