Tottenham are close to completing a deal to sign French holding midfielder Lassana Diarra from Real Madrid.

The 26-year-old joined Real from Portsmouth for £20m in 2008 and has scored one goal in 89 appearances.

Paris-born Diarra, who has 28 caps for France, started his career with Le Havre before joining Chelsea in 2005 and Arsenal two years later.

Tottenham are also in talks with Manchester City over a loan move for Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor.

Elvis - Coulibaly must have got a Visa, he played in our nextgen series game against Basel on Tuesday

how can that be "breaking news" it's been reported that we've been "cloing in" on the deal for weeks ? at what point does it become "news" ? at what point do we become "close" to the signing ? it's just nonsense.

=======================

was that played in england though ?

if so, great news, but a surprise he wasnt on the bench for hearts, seeing as we had 2 keepers on the bench ??

No, but I'm sure he played in England the game before that. Can't remember who against...

I dunno, guess cos it was 2 days after the nextgen, I thought at least Kane or Coulibaly would get a spot, if not both!

Normally I only find it 'breaking; when its on either Sky Sports or BBC!

They tend to wait until its almost certian before reporting it, unlike the Daily Fail

Great player Diarra the type of player we should be trying to attract.

I do agree though that its a bit confusing in that we need players in other areas a lot more. Maybe though this is just the one that will close first?

Thudd I would like a CB too I have to say, I thought at start of the summer a CB and 2 strikers would set us up nicely mate. If we can get that AND Diarra well happy ing days

Diarra comes and that would make it a stepping stone to sign some other top quality <surfing>ing players! I would pratically be nursing a semi if come Monday it says "Adebayor and Diarra" on the team sheet!

I won't lie, I won't be able to keep a clean sheet myself that night
