Manchester United are monitoring Bayer Leverkusen star Moussa Diaby but Newcastle are also interested in the player, who could cost as much as £69m.
Both Man United and Newcastle appear to be finalising their shortlists for the summer transfer window and Diaby is of interest to both clubs, as per Sky Germany. However, the interest from the Red Devils will depend on the result of their takeover, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim still attempting to buy the club. Leverkusen could ask for as much as £69m ($85.7m), with Diaby viewed as a key player by Xabi Alonso.
The France international has made 47 appearances in all competitions this season and has contributed to 25 goals, with 14 scored and 11 assisted. His contract runs until 2025, meaning that Leverkusen are not under any great pressure to sell.
