2017/18 Leeds United loanee is up for sale at Hamburg.

Hamburg are reportedly trying to sell 2017/18 Leeds United loanee Pierre-Michel Lasogga.

The Hamburger Morgenpost report the relegated side are trying to shift Lasogga’s hefty wages off their books.

Lasogga is reportedly up for sale but as yet, Hamburg have had no offers for the German striker.

Lasogga scored 10 goals in 31 games for Leeds United last season, 21 of which were starts.

He divided opinion with his performances, looking very capable one moment and disinterested the next.

He ended the season poorly, failing to net in his last 10 appearances and this will not be helping his cause.

Lasogga has just one year remaining on his contract at Hamburg, and it is reported that if there are no offers then they will attempt to reintegrate him into their first team in pre-season.

In mid-February Leeds fans launched a Twitter campaign to sign Lasogga permanently, but enthusiasm for this quickly drained as goals dried up.

A return to Leeds is unlikely at this point, and there has to be a desire for new boss Marcelo Bielsa to try something new.
