Bayer Leverkusen ace Moussa Diaby is interesting Manchester City.

Manchester United reportedly failed with a summer bid for the French winger.

Former Paris Saint-Germain prospect Diaby has shone since joining the Bundesliga club last year.

Reports in Germany claim Old Trafford boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wanted to sign the 21-year-old during the summer, and United made a £45million offer

However Leverkusen refused to sell, having lost attacking duo Kai Havertz and Kevin Volland to Chelsea and Monaco respectively.

Club sporting director Rudi Voller said: “The summer break wasn't just about Kai Havertz alone.

“We had three or four further players who were targeted by foreign clubs. Moussa Diaby was one of them. City boss Pep Guardiola is now said to want to sign the pint-sized winger during the January transfer window."
