Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain to battle it out for free agent Lassana Diarra

Lassana Diarra is subject to a cross-channel tug-of-war involving Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.

Le Parisien are reporting the French club are favourites, but also claim the 32-year-old travelled to England last week to discuss a deal.

Diarra is currently a free agent after his contract with Al Jazira was terminated in December. Prior to his move to The United Arab Emirates, the Frenchman was back in his homeland with Marseille.

With a wealth of experience, his other former clubs include Arsenal, Real Madrid and Chelsea. Overall his career has seen him make a total of 318 appearances since his senior debut for Le Harve in 2004.
