Aston Villa have completed the signing of winger Moussa Diaby from Bayer Leverkusen for a club-record fee.
Saudi Arabian giants Al Nassr were also interested in Diaby and entered into a bidding war with Villa but the 24-year-old declined a move to the Middle East in favour of linking up with Unai Emery at Villa Park.
The deal is now complete and Diaby has already travelled to the United States to link up with his new team for pre-season.
Villa are understood to have parted with over £50m to sign Diaby, who becomes the Villans’ new record signing.
