New Delhi:
The Dutch international, who is reportedly at the German club's facility for his medical, was keen on going to his former club Humburg where he played in the 2005-06 season before moving on to Real Madrid in 2007.
Spurs had earlier put up van der Vaart for a reported fee £14 million but will reportedly compromise with Humburg, who had bid for £8 million for the striker.
Van der Vaart had moved to the English club Tottenham from Madrid in a similar last minute transfer in 2010.
