Manchester United are interested in signing Moussa Diaby from Bayer Leverkusen in January after Newcastle tried to sign the winger over the summer.
The Magpies wanted to sign a winger during the last transfer window and the French star was Eddie Howe’s main target to address the issue, but the Tyneside club were unable to finalize the move.
According to the Telegraph, Newcastle were frustrated by Bayer Leverkusen’s insistence that they will not consider offers of less than £60m for the 23-year-old and could now miss out on the young star to Premier League rivals Manchester United.

Man United have just parted ways with Cristiano Ronaldo and many expect the Red Devils to sign a striker in the near future, but Diaby is a winger, which could mean Marcus Rashford moving to the front permanently.
The French star has a contract in Germany until 2025 and it is unknown if he will still cost £60m.
Diaby is a very talented player and would be a great addition to the Man United squad, but whether Newcastle decide to fight their Premier League rivals for the winger remains to be seen.
