The Diarra piece from the MEN:
United’s priority midfield target Mahamadou Diarra has been urged by his Mali mentor to sign for the Reds.
Salif Keita is the president of the Mali FA and has the midfielder's ear. Sire Diallom, another former Mali international, who works for Keita at their FA, said:
"I think if Mahamadou was given the choice then he would join United if he leaves Lyon. He has called Salif to ask him his opinion and which team he thinks would be appropriate to his talent. I believe Keita has said United."
Diallom is confident that the Lyon lynchpin will fit the bill for Fergie.
"I liked Roy Keane. He is a big player to replace. ut I am pretty sure that Mahamadou can do the job. Because of the language difficulty he might not be a leader vocally but he can inspire with his work on the field."
