Fergie planning Lyon trip
Sir Alex Ferguson is being tipped to attend Lyon´s final game of the Ligue 1 season on Saturday.
The Manchester United manager is plotting a summer swoop for midfielder Mahamadou Diarra, with the Mali star emerging as The Red Devils´ leading target during the close season.
As has long been anticipated, United will table a bid for the African ace and recent noises coming out of Real Madrid suggest the Old Trafford outfit are clear favourites to land their man.
However, Lyon have stressed their determination to keep Diarra with the 24-year-old a key part of Gerard Houllier´s plans.
The ex-Vitesse Arnhem man will be in action against Le Mans on the last day of Le Championnat and French sources claim Ferguson will strive to talk to Stade Gerland officials in preparation of a concrete offer.
