The 23-year-old winger for Bayer Leverkusen has been a crucial player for the Bundesliga club and has been linked with a move to Newcastle, according to Football Insider.
The Magpies really need to add more talent and depth in the wide areas, and Frenchman might be a fantastic addition. Diaby can play on both sides of the field, and his versatility will be an asset.
The Magpies’ wingers are now Allan Saint-Maximin and Miguel Almiron. While Almiron is better suited to a central attacking midfielder role, Saint-Maximin has struggled this season.
Newcastle is expected to qualify for the Champions League, and they will need superior players to compete in Europe.
Diaby has the potential to outperform his colleague Saint-Maximin. The 26-year-old Newcastle winger is undeniably talented, but he will need to work on his consistency difficulties if he is to reach his full potential.
Diaby will offer pace, flare, and goals in the last third, and he has the potential to help Newcastle break down deep defenses next season. This season, he has 14 goals and 10 assists to his credit.
The Magpies have drawn a number of league games this season, and they will want greater attacking quality to turn those draws into wins.
