Arsenal in advanced talks to bring Moussa Diaby

Moussa Diaby is getting closer to Arsenal day by day as transfer talk continues to intensify.

It’s claimed by British media that Arsenal are in advanced talks to bring Bayer 04 winger Moussa Diaby.

The 23-year-old has been subject to interest from various European clubs.

The France international joined Bayer Leverkusen from Paris Saint-Germain for a fee in the region of 15 million euros in 2019. His contract expires in the summer of 2025.

The winger has registered 8 goals and 4 assists in 22 matches for Leverkusen this season on all fronts.

Moussa Diaby is one of the brightest talents across Europe. The 23-year-old has not yet fully reached his prime. Diaby has earned eight senior caps for the France national team but is yet to open his goal-scoring account for his nation.

His performances have seen him become the target of many European clubs including Arsenal.

By the club’s own admission, Bayer Leverkusen winger Moussa Diaby is now Arsenal’s number one transfer target.

Someone with Diaby’s skillset and potential will no doubt be an excellent signing for Arsenal boss.

There is no doubt that Moussa Diaby will take Arsenal’s attack to a different level.

According to the report, “Arsenal are eyeing Bayer Leverkusen attacker Moussa Diaby. After missing out on Mykhaylo Mudryk, who has signed for Chelsea from Shaktar Donetsk, and being quoted €100m by Barcelona for Raphinha, Arsenal have turned to Diaby. The 23-year-old has a contract with Bayer Leverkusen that runs until the summer of 2025. Sky Deutschland says Arsenal have established contact and are ready to discuss terms with Bayer.”
