The bench is not a place where Lassana Diarra feels he should be and made his feelings known to the office members of Real Madrid by stating that he wants to the Bernabeu.

At just 25-years old, Diarra is definitely an impressive player but after the arrival of German midfielder, Sami Khedira, Jose Moruinho has not picked Diarra as one of the starting XI. Although many footballers have dreams of playing for the Spanish giants, Diarra wants to see more of the pitch and is tired of having to come in as a late-sub.

So what’s next for the French midfieler? According to Marca, Machester United has contacted Diarra and wish to sign him from the Bernabeu. It has also been reported that €13 million is the offer that Sir Alex and company will spend to sign Diarra but no news from Mourinho or Valdano state what they will do with Diarra.

Think Real Madrid should sell Diarra to? Will Lassana be a good fit at the Old Trafford? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.
