Hamburger SV forward Pierre-Michel Lasogga has claimed that he has no intention of continuing his career in Germany.

Lasogga is currently spending a season on loan at Leeds United, and the 26-year-old has proven to be a hit at Elland Road with 10 goals coming from 26 Championship appearances.

The striker is due back at his parent club during the summer, but the German attacker insists that he wants to secure another deal to play at the second tier or in the Premier League.

Lasogga is quoted by Sky Sports News as saying: "Sure, I'm still an HSV player, but maybe my childhood dream will come true. I feel good here, everything is alright.

"Here you are given more freedom to use your body. There is less whistling from the referees than in Germany."

Lasogga currently has one more year remaining on his contract at Hamburg.
