Daily Star:

Atletico Madrid have offered striker Fernando Torres to Manchester United - but want £14 million plus Ruud van Nistelrooy in exchange.

Sky Sports:

Reports in Spain suggest Manchester United are trying to push through a quick deal for Mahamadou Diarra, in order to fend off interest from Real Madrid.

Lyon are insistent that Diarra will not be allowed to leave Stade Gerland, but supremo Jean-Michel Aulas was saying the same about Michael Essien this time last year - and he went on to join Chelsea.
