Three sources report
Bayer Leverkusen has rejected an offer from Aston Villa for Moussa Diaby (24). While “Sky“ reports of an offer of around 45 million euros, writes theKicker“, that it was less than 30 million euros – the “Werkself” is reportedly ready to talk from 60 million euros. The transfer expert Fabricius Roman again reported that it was 35 million euros plus bonuses and that Diaby wanted the transfer – the negotiations between the clubs are therefore going to the next round.
An offer is also said to have come in from Saudi Arabia, which according to the “kicker” came from Al-Nassr FC and was worth 50 million euros – a well-known player from the Bundesliga is still missing from the Saudi Pro League’s list of entrants. Cristiano Ronaldo’s (38) employer was recently banned from reporting by FIFA due to outstanding payments (to the news). Diaby, who is under contract until 2025, is currently valued at €50m, having had a career high of €60m in 2022. Bayer has said goodbye to eight players so far this summer, only Mitchel Bakker (23, Atalanta) paid a fee of 10 million euros.
Market values Bayer Leverkusen: All important changes at a glance
Diaby was brought in as a talent from Paris Saint-Germain in 2019 for 15 million euros and has so far collected 97 points in 172 games. If Leverkusen let the French winger go for around €60m this summer, it would be the second most expensive sale in the club’s history after Kai Havertz (24, Arsenal) transferred to Chelsea. Should Aston Villa be awarded the contract, Bayer’s four most expensive departures would all have been drawn into the Premier League. Among them is Diaby’s ex-colleague Leon Bailey (25), who has been with Villa since 2021.
