Man Utd have long-term plans to cash in on Diouf - for £6M

Manchester United are planning to cash in on Mame Biram Diouf - but not just yet.

The People says United want to drive up his price by playing in the Carling Cup this season.

United are hopeful of a £6million fee for Diouf and hope he can rattle in some high-profile goals to maintain his value and Manchester United will not be sending Mame Biram Diouf away on-loan.

The People says the Senegal striker, 22, spent last season on loan at Blackburn and now Championship clubs are queuing up for him.
