LIVERPOOL are set to make Wigan midfielder Momo Diame their first signing of the summer.

Diame is out of contract after rejecting a new deal and the Reds are set to get him on a free.

But they could face competition from neighbours Everton.

Diame, 24, wants to leave Wigan after losing his place in Roberto Martinez’s starting line-up, having played 26 times this season.

The powerful midfielder, who joined Latics from Spanish club Rayo Vallecano for €3.8m (£3.1m), is a French-born Senegal international and can expect to double his money to £60,000 -a-week if the move goes ahead.

Diame will create cover and provide extra competition in the Reds’ midfield.

[HC]

He cant get into the starting XI for wigan?! Hes clearly ace, snap him up!

 

[keniget]

M'Vila to Arsenal. Diame to Liverpool. Ha!

I wonder if these double your wages deals actually happen. Sounds absurd.

 

[King Binny]

Some reports claim he's a replacement/competitor for Spearing's place in the squad.

 

[Fabio]

I'd have him as backup

Someone mentioned him on here recently. Who was it?

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Hold up - are we even allowed to sign black players?!?!

 

[Fabio]

Depends if kenny is manager

[ArneSlot4PM]

Duels lost - 142

He can get fucked.

 

[keniget]

0% (Spearing) Blackness (Diame)100%

 

[Cerberus]

LOL at those comparisons. Fuck off Diame. Soccernomics and Moneyball can suck on my testicles.

 

[Oncy]

Who the fuck did Spearing win 9 aerial duals with? James Carragher?

 

[doctor_mac]

The arial duels stat alone suggests we should keep Spearing. He's clearly some sort of warlock.

 

[Judge Jules]

He played CB a number of times for the ressies.

 

[Judge Jules]

BTW, while we're on the subject of departures from Wigan, Rodallega's the one I'd most like us to sign.

 

[Modo]

Very good player. I'll gladly have him in the squad.

 

[Fabio]

Yup. Hugo would be a cracking option

 

[Hansern]

M'Vila to Arsenal. Diame to Liverpool. Ha!

I wonder if these double your wages deals actually happen. Sounds absurd.

M'Vila to Arsenal isnt done though, and he hasnt been impressive this season.

Diame is not what we need.

We don't need another DM or we don't need Diame?

 

[Peatcheo]

He's shite.

 

[Sunny]

He's shite.

Yup, this

Wigan midfielder Mohamed Diame looks set to turn his back on a move to Liverpool in favour of a switch to Spain with Malaga.

Diame is set to leave the DW Stadium next month after refusing to sign a new contract with Latics but it was thought he would stay in the Premier League with a host of clubs chasing his signature.

Newcastle and Liverpool have both been linked but Malaga, who are one of La Liga's richest clubs these days, are ready to offer him the chance to play in Spain.

The 24-year-old played in Spain with Rayo Vallecano before Latics snapped him up for £3million and a return looks to be on the cards when his contract expires.

Diame has opted to leave Wigan after struggling to nail down a regular place in the side.

 

[SummerOnions]

Oh no!

 

[RolandG]

Malaga is a good fit for him

 

[737Max]

Hasn't he got a dodgy ticker?

WIGAN star Mohamed Diame is set to snub the Premier League to join Spanish club Real Betis.

Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton, and Aston Villa are among a host of clubs keen on the out-of-contract French ace, 24.

But Diame — who Roberto Martinez signed from Madrid outfit Rayo Vallecano in 2009 — wants to return to the Spanish sunshine.

The midfielder flew to Seville for talks with Betis coach Pepe Mel and sporting director Vlada Stosic last week.

Diame wants a three-year deal worth £3.5million, and is close to agreeing terms with Betis.

 

[redhorizon2]

We have no manager or sporting/technical director and we're making signings?

 

[doctor_mac]

No, as the story appears to indicate, we're not making signings.

 

[cobrastatus]

I love how he's become a star in the span of 3-4 gossip news articles

 

[Judge Jules]

Indeed. I'm quite sure we, the Arse and Tottenham will all turn up at the airport begging him not to go.
