Lassana Diarra has been told by Real Madrid to forget about trying to get a move away this month.
Lass was at the Santiago Bernabeu yesterday with agent John Williams to discuss his situation.
Manchester United and Tottenham are interested in the Frenchman, but he was informed by Real chiefs that he is a required player for the remainder of this season.
Diarra has dislodged Sami Khedira from the starting line-up in recent games, further convincing coach Jose Mourinho of his value.
