Manchester United are place to formulate a fly down for Real Madrid midfielder Mahamadou Diarra, in proportion to reports from England.
The Mali international suffered a cruel knee injury last time of year, putting him out of battle for the mainstream of the campaign, and leading Los Blancos to swoop for his namesake, Lassana Diarra, from Portsmouth.Since his entrance and the purchase of Xabi Alonso from Liverpool, the 28-year old has found himself inaccessible at the Santiago Bernabeu, and according to The Daily Star Sunday, Sir Alex Ferguson wants to add the enforcer to his position as he aims to defend the clubs’ Premier League crown.
The Red Devils had formerly been connected with a move for Diarra when he was a Lyon player, but at the time he opted for a shift to Spain, and any move to England relies on Real Madrid’s judgment of the player.His representative has been quoted as saying, “For now, a move in January is possible but it will be very difficult. It depends how much money a club is agreeable to pay for the player, and how much the Real want for him.“His contract finishes in 2011, so he still has time to run.”
