Bayern Munich eyeing Real Madrid's Van der Vaart

Bayern Munich want to bring Real Madrid midfielder Rafael van der Vaart back to Germany.

The former Hamburg star has struggled to make an impact at Real this season, but still enjoys an excellent reputation in Germany.

DSF says Bayern chiefs are weighing up a move for Van der Vaart, who is unsettled in Madrid.

The Dutchman could join Bayern as a direct replacement for star French winger Franck Ribery.
