Aston Villa winger Diaby: I learned so much from PSG stars

Aston Villa winger Moussa Diaby admits he learned plenty as a young player a PSG.

Diaby says he appreciated working with PSG's stars as a young player.

He told the Mirror: "There were a lot of great players already at PSG at the time. Mbappé, Neymar, Di Maria, Cavani… The list was long. I watched them every day to learn.

"These players don't do the same things. Mbappé is a very high level player but he is not the same as Di Maria or Cavani. What I learned were their different strengths. Cavani's movement was top notch.

"He was always looking for space. Di Maria had excellent technique. He's actually the one I watched more than anyone else because we played in the same position."
