Under contract at the Real Madrid, but still injured, the former player of Lyon, Mahamadou Diarra, could join Inter Milan according to his agent.
Frederic Guerra declared that : “The Inter Milan is a great opportunity for Diarra. He is the only player in Europe that can play at Inter Milan. No other player plays like him in Europe. And De Rossi, Gerrard and Lampard will not quit their clubs”. Currently in a recovery phase after a severe injury that had forced the Real to recruit Lassana Diarra at Christmas, Guerra said that even if the player is in a great club, there are 3 or 4 big teams in which it might evolve. “I had no contacts with the Inter, but the news make me think taht it is reasonable to think about this possibility. We must wait for the new president and the new direction of the Real before talking about a transfer. I do not know if the new president will hire Diarra on or not ” he concluded.
The Brazilian site Globoesporte indicates that The AS Roma has hired a 9 years old young central defender …
