Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp can see them re-signing Real Madrid midfielder Nuri Sahin.
But Klopp insists Sahin can still make it at Real.
"We all know that the Spanish press can be very positive or very negative and in addition he is an impatient boy," commented Klopp.
"But after the holidays he'll begin to show his best. I still maintain contact with him and in the future we may consider his return."
