Sky Sports sources understand that Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on the signing of Real Madrid's Lassana Diarra. Skysports.com revealed earlier this month that Spurs had made a move for Diarra - who wants to seal a switch back to England. The French international has already played for Arsenal, Chelsea and Portsmouth in the Premier League and now he looks set to join his fourth club. Redknapp signed Diarra during his time at Portsmouth, and has already confirmed his hope of completing his signing. A deal, worth around £10million, is now believed to be close to completion.
