Rumors that Mr Mubarak may arrive in Germany for a medical sojourn are "much more concrete than was believed until now", the magazine wrote in its online edition. "Preliminary talks with appropriate hospitals are ongoing, particularly with the Max-Grundig clinic in Buhl in the Bade-Wurtemberg region,” the report said, citing sources close to the clinic.

Mr Mubarak, who is facing continued protests calling for his resignation, has previously received medical treatment in Germany at least twice, news.com.au reports.
