Moussa Diaby Set to Leave Al-Ittihad: Next Destination Revealed

French winger Moussa Diaby is nearing a departure from Al-Ittihad during the current summer transfer window, as the player has caught the attention of German club Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer Leverkusen officials have moved to open direct negotiations with Al-Ittihad's management, aiming to reach a final agreement regarding the transfer of the French winger in the coming days.

Negotiations between the two clubs are progressing positively so far, with expectations that the deal could be finalized in the coming hours, provided an agreement is reached on the final details.

Diaby's potential departure comes as the Union's management seeks to reorganize the foreign player list, making room for new signings during the summer transfer window.

Coach Jens Vissching is working on strengthening Al-Ittihad's squad with several signings to compensate for the existing shortcomings in the team and to prepare strongly for the upcoming challenges.

Vissing had excluded Diaby from the recent King’s Cup match against Al-Najma, preferring to make some changes and rotate the squad.

Although the exclusion was not related to a departure at the time, Diaby's future is now closer to being resolved, with Bayer Leverkusen's negotiations with the federation progressing.
