Aston Villa football club captain John McGinn is excited to welcome new signing Moussa Diaby from Bayer Leverkusen. In a recent interview, John McGinn said, “He’s a little bit faster than me”. French national Moussa Diaby has joined Premier League club Aston Villa from Bayer Leverkusen. After the signing, Aston Villa’s manager Unai Emery said, ‘We are really excited and are really happy with him.’ “The 24-year-old winger joins Villa from Bayer Leverkusen for an undisclosed fee and has already linked up with his new team-mates on their tour of the United States.” John McGinn said, He’s a little bit faster than me “I’m excited. We obviously hear the rumours, we read the stories, but we never really get the knowledge until he walks through the door.” He added, “I think if you have any knowledge of football if you love football, you know who he is,” said the Scotland international. You’re excited by him coming in and he’s certainly going to improve us.” The France international winger sealed his move to Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee, immediately joining the club’s pre-season trip to the USA. Diaby, who has 10 international caps for France, started his career with his hometown club, Paris Saint-Germain, graduating from the youth ranks into the first team. Since joining Leverkusen in 2019, his performances for the Bundesliga side both domestically and in the Champions League and Europa League had caught the eye of several clubs around Europe. He finished last season with 14 goals to his name in all competitions. Diaby is a product of the Paris Saint-Germain Youth Academy.
