Al-Ittihad Delays Moussa Diaby's Transfer Amid AFC Champions League Preparations

Inter Milan is keeping a close eye on Moussa Diaby as a potential addition for their right flank. However, the pursuit is complicated due to high costs and stiff competition, alongside the ongoing challenge of player exits that is also affecting their interest in Romero. According to the Arabic outlet Slaati, Al-Ittihad's coach Jens Wissing has requested a delay in Diaby’s transfer for a few more days.

The outcome of whether Diaby will join Inter or Bayer Leverkusen is currently uncertain. Wissing and his squad are set to face Al-Jazira next Tuesday in the AFC Champions League Elite preliminary rounds, which is Asia's premier club competition. This match in the United Arab Emirates is crucial, as a victory would secure a spot in the continent's most prestigious tournament. Wissing aims to field his strongest lineup for this decisive encounter, which he hopes will include Diaby.
