Al-Ittihad signs French winger Moussa Diaby from Aston Villa
Al-Ittihad Club has announced the signing of French winger Moussa Diaby from English team Aston Villa, which is a fantastic addition to the team.
Famed for his lightning-fast speed and deft feet, Diaby signs a five-year contract with the first squad after passing a medical check in Alicante, Spain.
Moussa Diaby’s career is evidence of both his extraordinary talent and tenacity. Playing in France’s top divisions as well as those in Germany and England, Diaby has often demonstrated his ability to outrun defenders and provide both goals and vital assists. His rise from the slums of Paris to Europe’s largest stadiums is a testament to his unwavering quest for greatness.
Ramon Planes, the sports director of Al-Ittihad, and Diaby’s new colleagues gave him a warm welcome when he arrived at the team’s training camp in Spain.
Domingos Oliveira, the CEO of Al-Ittihad, couldn’t hide his excitement about the new signing. “Our sports committee identified the need to strengthen the winger position with an exceptional player, and we are confident that Moussa Diaby is one of the top players who stand out globally in this role. He will be a significant asset to the team. His addition aligns perfectly with our preparations for the new season, aiming to achieve remarkable performances and results that honor Al-Ittihad’s esteemed legacy and its passionate fan base.”
Expressing his enthusiasm, Diaby said: “I am thrilled to join Al-Ittihad and be part of a project that aims to build a strong team reflecting the club’s rich history and values. I look forward to collaborating with my new teammates to achieve victories and bring joy to our dedicated fans.”
Karim Benzema, Ngolo Kante, Fabinho, and other talents are part of Al-Ittihad‘s dynamic squad. Al-Ittihad won the Saudi Pro League in 2022–2023. Laurent Blanc, a French coach, has also been appointed by the club to guide the team in the forthcoming campaign. The outstanding Algerian footballer Houssem Aouar was their first summer hire.
