Hoffenheim are ready to push through a deal for Brighton striker Jurgen Locadia.
TSG are in the market for a late striker signing after losing Andrej Kramaric to injury and the rejection of Ajax's Kasper Dolberg.
AD says Hoffenheim are now seeking to close terms for Locadia.
TSG coach Alfred Schreuder is driving the move for his fellow Dutchman.
The Bundesliga club would favour a loan arrangement.
