According to But! Football Club, Arsenal could make a bid for Bayer Leverkusen winger Moussa Diaby, and links with Liverpool suggest that they would be smart to do so.
But! Football Club have claimed that Bayer could sell Diaby for €70 million (£59.19 million) in the summer transfer window.
Arsenal are interested in the France international winger, according to the report, which has added that the Gunners are not prepared to pay that much for him.
However, the Gunners are ready to negotiate with Bayer and bring down the price.
Moussa Diaby would be brilliant for Arsenal
In our view, Moussa Diaby would be a very good signing for Arsenal in the summer transfer window.
The France international is one of the better wingers in the Bundesliga and is still only 23.
The former Paris Saint-Germain man will develop and improve in the coming years.
Diaby scored 13 goals and gave 12 assists in 32 Bundesliga appearances and scored four goals and provided two assists in seven Europa League starts last season.
Liverpool have also been linked with Diaby.
Earlier this year, there was speculation that Liverpool were looking at the France international winger as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah should he leave.
Egypt international forward Salah eventually signed a new contract at the Merseyside club.
Links with Liverpool, though, still persist.
Well-known and well-respected Bild journalist Christian Falk told GiveMeSport on August 7 that Diaby would be “perfect” for Liverpool.
We know that Liverpool sign only the best players, and if someone as knowledgable as Falk thinks that Diaby would be perfect for Jurgen Klopp’s side, then we have to say that he would be brilliant for Arsenal as well.
