Spurs target £10 million former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder

Tottenham are preparing a £10 million move for Portsmouth midfielder Lassan Diarra. The French international has impressed during his time at Pompey since moving from Arsenal last January and this has caught the attention of Spurs boss Juande Ramos. (Daily Mirror)



The former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder has made just over a dozen appearances for Pompey, scoring once in the process. He played no small part in Portsmouth winning the FA Cup this year and has become an instant fan favourite at Fratton Park.

I personally think Diarra should stay at Pompey for at least another year and then think about moving to a side like Spurs. He is a terrific passer of and I think he can only get better with age so although I don't think he will move to White Hart Lane this summer, I certainly wouldn't be ruling it out next summer.
