Arsenal jump ahead of Newcastle, PSG for Bayer Leverkusen winger Diaby

Arsenal have joined Newcastle United in their interest in Bayer Leverkusen winger Moussa Diaby.

BILD says Arsenal are rated favourites for his signature, though former club PSG are also keen.

The 23-year-old Diaby battled to breakthrough at PSG before eventually being sold to Italian minnows Crotone.

He has since built his career at Bayer and now is back on the radar of PSG, along with Arsenal and Newcastle.

Diaby's sale has been discussed within the club's hierarchy, knowing they could sell for well over €50m this summer.

"'It's fun when many clubs are interested in you," Diaby said this week. "But, I'm concentrating on my season in Leverkusen. It is important to me to make progress."
