Diarra tight-lipped on future
Pompey ace says 'anything could happen'
Portsmouth midfielder Lassana Diarra is remaining tight-lipped over where his future lies.
The much-coveted France international looks set to end up at either Real Madrid or Manchester City next month.
The Spanish giants had an 'exceptional' offer accepted by Pompey on Wednesday, while City boss Mark Hughes later said he was still interested in trying to reach a deal.
Speaking to the Spanish media, Diarra, 23, said 'anything could happen' and he will not speak about the situation for a few days at least.
But he did say that he hopes his future will be settled soon.
He told AS: "I cannot talk. I don't want to. They are calling me from England and France, but I will talk inside a few days."
Asked whether he would prefer Madrid to Manchester, Diarra replied: "I will not say anything. Football is complicated and anything could happen."
He added in Marca: "I cannot say anything, really. You have to respect me. I will talk inside a few days, now I cannot say anything.
"I cannot talk. I hope my future will be settled in the next few days, soon. This is the only thing I can say."

Diarra will wear the name 'Lass' on the back of his shirt

Lass : as he is known now.
LASSANA DIARRA has completed his move to Real Madrid — and immediately insisted he is not the new Claude Makelele.
The Frenchman joined the Spanish giants from Portsmouth in a £20million deal. But upon his arrival, the defensive midfielder told fans not compare him Makelele, who spent three seasons at the Bernabeu before joining Chelsea in 2003.
He said: “It’s an honour to be compared to Makelele — but Makelele is Makelele and I am me. "We have some things in common but I’m my own player. "They compare me to him but he came here when he was a little older, I’m younger."
One reason for Real's swoop is a long-term injury to Mahamadou Diarra. And while he will fill his namesake's place on the pitch, the former Pompey star will have something different on his shirt.
He added: “I don’t want to be called Diarra One or Diarra Two. I want to be known as Lass.”

I think Real must have told him he need to get a new name for his shirt or those fellows already having Diarra, Mahamadou Diarra that is won't need to buy his jersey anymore... lol
Having to changed himself to a "Lass" is quite funny...
I just wonder if Ronaldo do join Real, what name will they make him take in order not to have their fans cheat them and put on the "Fat" Ronaldo jersey and pass it of as the new guys... lol
-
i always thought "Lass" as a horse's name.
-
I was just thinking what if the guy putting the letters on the jersey was having a bad day and didn't do a good job with the "L" then one day after a few wash, it fell off while the fellow is wearing it...
Then he will go around with the word "ass" on his back...
