Previews: Planus open to lucrative move

"I'll say it loud and clear, I love money," Planus was quoted as saying by sports daily L'Equipe ahead of Sunday's visit to AS Nancy. "It's not football above all. I'm not the type to leave a club after six months but I am a player capable of going to Qatar.
