We'll have Lassana

West Ham are reported to be monitoring free agent Lassana Diara's planned move to Inter.

TuttoMercatoWeb claim that West Ham, along with German club Hamburg are waiting in the wings should the French midfielder's move to Roberto Mancini's Serie A side fall through.

Although technically a free agent Diarra is still involved in a legal dispute with former club Lokomotiv Moscow, who sacked him in August 2014 after the former French international failed to turn up for training.

That led to Celtic dropping a planned bid to sign the 29=year-old earlier in the season and has thus far prevented the Italians from completing their approach.

Diarra has several years' experience of Premier League football having previously featured for Chelsea, Arsenal and Portsmouth.

However it is six years now since he left Portsmouth to join Real Madrid, since when he has represented Russian clubs Anzhi Makhachkala and Moscow - for whom he last featured in July 2014.
