Bordeaux captain and France midfielder Alou Diarra has admitted he dreams of playing for Italian giants Milan.

The Rossoneri are flying high in Serie A and reports have linked them with a hoard of midfielders in the summer transfer window, such as Bayern Munich's Arjen Robben, and Tottenham winger Gareth Bale.

Now Diarra, 29, is making his case for a move to Massimiliano Allegri's side, and when asked who he dreamed of playing for, he told the club's official website:

"Milan because of their players and their history. The San Siro is a magnificent stadium.[Marco] Van Basten, [Frank] Rijkaard, [Ruud] Gullit, [Roberto] Donadoni, [Paolo] Maldini,[Franco] Baresi, that was a great team."
