Newcastle Has Made Further Inquiries Over Moussa Diaby Of Bayer Leverkusen.

Moussa Diaby, a standout for Bayer Leverkusen, has drawn new interest from Newcastle.

Newcastle has long admired French winger Diaby, but the demands from Leverkusen have previously turned them away.

They are still interested in hearing about developments involving Diaby, who is also a target of Arsenal after they lost out to Chelsea on Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk.

Leverkusen, led by Xabi Alonso, are four points above the bottom three in the Bundesliga as they prepare to resume play against Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday.

As a result, they are keen to hang onto Diaby, 23, at least until the conclusion of the current season. Diaby is one of their important players, and his contract is not set to expire until 2025.

MailOnline knows that with two weeks left in the window, it is still possible that they may need to sell one of their more valuable assets in order to earn money. This is because they are also seeking to raise money via sales.

Diaby, a left-footer who can play on either flank, joined Leverkusen in 2019 after leaving Paris Saint-Germain.

In 146 appearances for the German team, he has scored 43 goals, assisted on another 41, and earned his eight senior French caps while playing for Leverkusen.
