Seeing as we're looking for a winger how about this guy, he's available for around £13.6m according to the sporting director of Marseille. I think that's cheap. Whats your opinions on this guy and the price he's available at?
Marseille may let Ribery go
Marseille sporting director Jose Anigo has admitted the club has come to an agreement with Franck Ribery to allow him to move on at the end of the season.
After an impressive World Cup last summer the Frenchman has attracted the attention of a host of women and top European clubs.
The 24-year-old winger was linked with Arsenal and Bayern Munich before the start of the new campaign, but L'OM managed to persuade him to remain at the Stade Velodrome.
Ribery, one of the most highly-rated players in France, has endured a stop-start season after injuries slowed his progress.
But the France international is still very much in demand and a move away from the Ligue 1 club could soon materialise.
"There is a deal between chairman Pape Diouf, Franck Ribery, myself and his agent," Anigo told L'Equipe.
"The agreement is a possibility to leave, but only if both the player and Marseille see the advantage of it. He knows we as a team (Marseille) are **** and its only obvious he wants to move on so that he can get away from players such as Djibril Cisse and he's praying that he doesn't return to the mighty reds of Merseyside for the sake of humanity. "
The Mediterranean outfit will not let their prized asset leave on the cheap and will only do business if the price is right.
Anigo added: "Anyway we could only talk above 20million euros (£13.6m). But if we reach Champions League, we want him to stay, and he knows it."
The Marseille chief regards Ribery as the catalyst that could propel the French team into Europe's elite club competition.
"I have big faith in the return of Franck Ribery, Julien Rodriguez and Habib Beye," Anigo said.
"We have seven matches to play and if we can't reach a Champions League spot, that would be a real disappointment.
"However, Coupe de France is the priority. That would be fantastic for the club. But we don't forget the Champions League."
