Report suggests Milan have shown interest in 26-year-old Valencia centre-back

Valencia defender Mouctar Diakhaby is on AC Milan’s radar ahead of the summer transfer window, according to a report.

Fichajes.net in Spain report how Diakhaby was at the time considered one of the best centre-back prospects in French football when he was at Lyon and was earning links with a move to Barcelona.

However, the move he ended up getting was to Valencia in the summer of 2018 for a fee of €15m, having since played a total of 141 games for the LaLiga side in which he has scored six goals. His inconsistent performances have prevented him being established as one of the league’s best, but Milan are interested in him ahead of the summer.

Milan are one of the clubs that have shown the most interest so far in signing the 26-year-old, who is under contract until June 2027, but nothing else is mentioned in terms of potential formula or transfer fee.
