Indeed, the ex-Parisian still has a long-term contract since he is linked to the German formation until June 2025. However, this should not pose a problem for the new wealthy owners of the British club. It remains to know the desires of Moussa Diaby.

The formalization could take place in the coming days. At the Spurs, the Croatian will find Antonio Conte, his former coach at the Nerazzurri.
It’s only a matter of days. The transfer of promising Ajax Amsterdam midfielder Ryan Gravenberch (20) to FC Bayern Munich is about to be completed. According to information published by Fabrizio Romano, the two teams have already agreed on the terms of the operation. The Dutchman should pass the traditional medical exams next week before signing with the Bavarian club until June 2027. The sum that the German champion should pay to secure his services has not yet leaked.
Announced on the departure this summer at the expiration of his contract, Eddie Nketiah will finally stay at Arsenal, announced Fabrizio Romano this Saturday.

Several clubs – West Ham, Crystal Palace and two Bundesliga outfits – were interested in signing him for free at the off season.
