Manchester United targeting £65m-rated winger to replace Jadon Sancho
The England playmaker has failed to live up to the billing since his £72m arrival from Dortmund in 2021.
Sancho scored seven goals and provided three assists last season, in a campaign in which he was given significant time off by Erik ten Hag.
The winger is one of a few dispensible first team players that could fetch big money on the open market.
Tottenham are said to be interested in Sancho and a sale could raise around £50m.
The Daily Mail say United could use that cash to bid for Diaby, who had a fine season in the Bundesliga last term.
Diaby scored 11 goals and provided 14 assists during a thrilling campaign under Xabi Alonso.
The Frenchman came through Paris Saint-Germain’s ranks but left the club for more playing time and the Ligue 1 giants are said to be interested in re-signing the playmaker.
But PSG have other problems, with Kylian Mbappe now likely to depart after Lionel Messi’s exit.
