Hoffenheim geintresseerd in AZ spitsen


Tijdens het duel tussen FC Volendam en AZ zat zondagmiddag een meer dan geïnteresseerde delegatie van Hoffenheim op de tribune. De Duitse club is op zoek naar een vervanger van de geblesseerde Vedad Ibisevic en hoopt deze in Alkmaar te vinden.

De Bosnische topscorer van de Duitse stuntploeg scheurde afgelopen week een knieband en is daardoor enkele maanden niet inzetbaar. Om offensief niet in problemen te komen heeft Hoffenheim zijn zinnen gezet op een nieuwe aanvaller, weet het Algemeen Dagblad maandag te melden.

In Alkmaar is het dringen om een plaatsje in de voorhoede. Momenteel zijn het Ari en Mounir El Hamdaoui die de voorkeur krijgen boven Moussa Dembélé en Graziano Pellè. Een luxepositie voor trainer Louis van Gaal. Volgens de krant zou Hoffenheim echter van plan zijn één van de vier aanvallers naar Duitsland te halen.
