Manchester United shows interest in Moussa Diaby from Al-Ittihad
Summary

Manchester United is reportedly interested in signing Moussa Diaby, currently with Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League. The club aims to bolster its squad, focusing on former Premier League players like Diaby, who has been effective since joining the Saudi club. He has contributed to 42 goals in 71 matches since moving from Aston Villa in 2024. With Manchester United also eyeing Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers, they might prioritize a more affordable option in Diaby should the negotiations for Rogers become challenging. Diaby remains under contract until 2029, but Al-Ittihad may consider selling him for the right offer.
