Sensational Transfer Revelation: Manchester United Eyeing Bundesliga Sensation with Mind-Blowing Valuation
Moussa Diaby, a standout for Bayer Leverkusen, is allegedly being scouted by Manchester United. With a spot in the Champions League almost certain, the Red Devils are hoping to bolster their roster this summer. Diaby, the talismanic winger for Leverkusen and a household figure in the Bundesliga, is reportedly a target for them.
Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg tweeted that the 23-year-old is wanted by Newcastle United, but that negotiations are still in the early stages. Manchester United, on the other hand, has reaffirmed their interest and is keeping tabs on his status.
Diaby is a highly sought after player at the moment, so securing his services will not be cheap. Plettenberg also shared the player’s astronomical asking price.
Diaby’s stellar performance for Leverkusen is largely responsible for his sky-high market value. In all competitions, the Frenchman has 14 goals and 11 assists. He’s just 23 years old, and his present deal has a duration of three more years.

Newcastle’s coffers are flush with money thanks to funds from the Saudi Public Investment Fund. And now that they have finally qualified for the Champions League after 20 years, the Magpies can give him a spot on their team.
Manchester United’s near-certainty of a Premier League playoff spot, though, makes playing for the Red Devils an enticing option for any player.

In addition, United’s head coach Erik ten Hag has a stellar track record with young players, having fostered future Ajax greats like Nemanja Matic and bringing the most out of United’s Marcus Rashford this season.
Manchester United have only scored 52 goals in 36 Premier League games this season. Only Aston Villa had fewer goals scored (49) among the top 10 teams.
When you consider that Marcus Rashford has scored 30% of their goals, you can see how dire their offensive woes really are.
The Red Devils could need some more firepower, and Moussa Diaby may offer it. The 23-year-old is a right winger who has contributed 49 goals and 48 assists in 171 games for Bayer Leverkusen in all competitions.
He’s quick, has excellent game awareness, and can thread a needle with a pinpoint throughball. His dribbling skills are unrivaled, and he is an expert at sparking counterattacks. With all of Diaby’s potential, Manchester United will be tempted to take a risk on him.
