Arsenal have an interest in signing Aston Villa target Moussa Diaby, according to Kicker.



The Gunners have already spent more than £200 million in the transfer market, and they are currently aiming to recoup funds.

The club have gained around £27m from player sales and they are looking for another £80m-100m before they can pursue more signings.

A right winger is one of the priorities for the Gunners, and Kicker claim that the club hold an interest in Bayer Leverkusen star Diaby.

Diaby was on the radar of the Gunners in the January transfer window, but they were put off by the £85m valuation of the German side.

The price tag has been lowered to around £60m this summer, and Arsenal may need to be quick to secure his services ahead of Villa.

The west Midlands outfit have recently tabled £42m for the attacker but Leverkusen are eyeing much more with Al Nassr also in the mix.
