Arsenal recently suffered a major blow in the transfer market with their failure in the case of Mykhailo Mudryk, who left for Chelsea. But the Gunners have not said their last word this winter.
Arsenal supporters have been pretty spoiled since the start of the season. In addition to the club’s wide lead at the top of the Premier League, the game is also there. The return of the Gunners to the forefront of English football redistributes certain cards and should allow Arsenal to gain new attractiveness on the transfer market. In order to further strengthen his collective, Mikel Arteta had a plan to offer Mykhailo Mudryk, Ukrainian star of Shakhtar. While everything seemed settled in this file, Mudryk finally decided to take the direction of … Chelsea, very spendthrift this winter in the transfer window. But according to the English press, Arsenal wants to react and strike a blow on the market in the coming days.

As reported in particular by Daily Mail et Sky Sports, the Gunners have made contact with Bayer Leverkusen for Moussa Diaby. The Londoners are still looking to fill the long injury of Gabriel Jesus and the former PSG is very popular on the Arsenal board, especially since Mikel Arteta also intends to do well in the Europa League. Problem for the moment, the German club does not want to sell it this winter and evaluates its price at 100 million euros for next summer. Besides Arsenal, the French international is also courted by Newcastle. The Magpies are among the new rich in English football and are also ambitious this season, with a current place in the Big 4. In the event of very big offers, it is difficult to imagine Bayer refusing advances from Arsenal or Newcastle, despite the desire to keep his player. This season with the German club, Diaby has scored 8 goals and provided 4 assists in 25 games.
