Confirmed✅Arsenal to sign Moussa Diaby!🔥Initial Contact made,Artetawants him, Raphinha deal update Arsenal transfer news Arsenal News
Arsenal have made initial contact with Bayer Leverkusen over the potential signing of winger Moussa Diaby. Bayer were quoting interested clubs €100m for Diaby in the summer & don’t want to sell mid-season. Arsenal are keen to add a forward this month. Diaby's contract in Germany runs until the summer of 2025. He has been at Leverkusen since 2019, when he signed from boyhood side Paris Saint-Germain.The winger has eight caps for France's national side, but missed out on their World Cup squad last year.Arsenal clearly want to bolster their frontline this January - and the position where they need the most attention is the right wing.Competition and backup are needed for Bukayo Saka, who was overused last season as Arsenal dropped out of the Champions League places at the end of the campaign. This season again he has barely been given a rest by Mikel Arteta as there is not much behind him in terms of cover.Diaby shares plenty of characteristics with Saka which makes many feel like this interest in the Bayer Leverkusen winger is to help support the England attacker.The two-footed Frenchman has the most chances created via carrying the ball (29) in the Bundesliga this season, while his simpler statistics are promising as well.Arsenal are also keeping an eye on Raphinha's situation at Barcelona - though it's likely he will stay put in this window |
