Rafael van der Vaart has stunned Tottenham by claiming he pines for a return to Hamburg.
Van der Vaart insists he is delighted to be dazzling in the Barclays Premier League, but remains key to return to the Bundesliga club where established himself as one of Europe's hottest properties.
"My decision to move here (to Tottenham) was the best thing to do," Van der Vaart told Kicker-Sportmagazin.
"I do not regret moving over here. We are doing well in the league and Spurs are a top side in the Premier League.
"It is, however, a fact that I want to play for Hamburg again. I have been told that I will always be welcome back there.
"I think I will rejoin the club in the future. Last summer I was not handed the opportunity because the financial circumstances were not right at that point, but maybe in the future they will be."
