Premier League clubs Arsenal and Chelsea will compete closely in the 2023 transfer market. The two London giants are reportedly both interested in signing Moussa Diaby from Bayer Leverkusen.
The 23-year-old player has been defending Leverkusen since 2019. He moved from PSG to prove his worth at Bayer Leverkusen.
Together with Die Werkself he appeared impressive. He was prolific in scoring and assisting the German giants.
Reported by 90min, Diaby has the potential to move to England next season. Because Arsenal and Chelsea are both interested in the player.
Check out the Diaby transfer situation below.
Need Winger Top
Both Arsenal and Chelsea are both serious about the transfer of Diaby. Because they both need a new winger in their team.
Both Chelsea and Arsenal want to strengthen their attack line. Incidentally they lack a stock of capable wingers in their team.
Seeing Diaby's slick performance with Leverkusen, both teams were immediately excited and wanted to bring him to England.
It will be difficult
The report claims that Arsenal and Chelsea will find it difficult to secure Diaby's services. Because Leverkusen refused to sell the player.
For Die Werkself, Diaby is an irreplaceable figure in their team. Leverkusen also considers it difficult to find a suitable replacement for the player.
Their position is also strong, because Diaby is still under contract at BayArena until 2026. So it takes huge funds to hijack the player.
Transfer dowry
According to reports circulating, Arsenal and Chelsea had to spend very deep to get Diaby's services.
The 23-year-old winger is rumored to only be released if Leverkusen get an offer of around 80 million euros.
