QPR chasing Hamburg midfielder Van der Vaart

QPR are moving for Hamburg midfielder Rafael van der Vaart.

The former Tottenham star is available after HSV's relegation last season.

Get West London says the man who thrilled Harry Redknapp when the two were at Tottenham is looking to tie up his financial future in what is set to be the last big pay-day of his career.

Turkish giants Besiktas are interested, but the Dutchman, 31, would rather play for someone he likes and admires, and Redknapp has also made it plain he will only sign the tried and trusted.
