Agent insists no Real Madrid rift for Diarra

The agent of Lassana Diarra insists there's no row with Real Madrid.

Diarra's agent John Williams insists the player is not trying to force a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu before the start of next season.

"Lass is on holiday, but he is not trying to open up a cold war," Williams told Marca.

"The player wants to make it clear that he respects the club and there is no conflict."

Regarding a potential transfer fee for Diarra, Williams added: "The price of a hypothetical sale is determined by negotiations and not the will of the player."
