Former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Lassana Diarra targeted by Turkish giants Galatasaray

Former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Lassana Diarra has been offered the chance to join Galatasaray.

The France international revealed in May that he is able to leave Marseille on a free this summer - despite being contracted to the club until June 2019.

This is reportedly down to an agreement that Diarra made with the French side last summer when he joined, which stated he could leave for nothing if the team failed to qualify for European football.

Clubs from around Europe have been alerted to the clause and the 31-year-old has been offered to Tottenham already.
