Kuyt talks up HSV move

Liverpool forward Dirk Kuyt has confirmed reports linking him with a move to Hamburger SV.

The Dutch striker is unhappy with his status at Anfield and is looking to leave the club in search of first team football.

After declaring his exit plans, the 32-year-old was linked with a number of high-profile sides and he has already rejected an offer from former club Feyenoord.

The player admits that he could stay at Liverpool should the new coach promise him regular playing time.

“If Liverpool get a new coach who wants to keep me and wants to give me more games than last season, then that is a possibility,” Kuyt told Bild.

The Dutch international, however, admits he is tempted by the prospect of joining Hamburger SV.

“Yes. HSV is an option. I am proud that such a great, wonderful club have shown interest in me. But, there are other offers.”

Asked whether he plans to decide on his future after the European Championship, Kuyt answered affirmatively.

“Yes. Everything is settled with my agent Rob Jansen. My agent knows what I want. He controls everything for me.”

Kuyt is now set to leave Liverpool after spending six years at Anfield, during five of which he was considered a key player in the side.

However, he has seen his first team chances limited last season and has only scored 2 goals in 34 Premier League appearances.
