Spurs target Gunners ace

It has been reported in the The Guardian today that Tottenham are after Arsenal utility player Lassana Diarra after the former Chelsea player admitted he was unsettled at the Gunners. Diarra has only started two Premier League games for Arsenal and is growing increasingly frustrated at the lack of first team football.

Diarra was signed by Arsenal just before the summer transfer deadline is a surprise move from London neighbours Chelsea. New Spurs boss Juande Ramos is apparently lining up an £7 million bid for the player that only cost the Gunners £2 million in January.

It has been a real shame to of seen so little of Diarra in recent months because I think he has the potential to be a world class player. He can play in a lot of positions and I feel he would be a real asset to the Spurs side.
