Moussa Diaby

In early 2026, reports detailed extensive negotiations where Inter Milan offered a loan with a purchase option/obligation for values reportedly set at €35 million, €31 million, and €28 million. Al-Ittihad was said to have rejected these, demanding a permanent deal with an asking price of €40 million and a minimum acceptance fee of €28 million. His Transfermarkt value was cited as €28 million in January 2026 and €30 million in June 2025. This followed his completed transfer from Aston Villa to Al Ittihad for a reported €60 million in July 2024 and his move from Bayer Leverkusen to Aston Villa for €55 million in July 2023.

Our valuation is driven by the extensive and recent negotiations between Inter Milan and Al-Ittihad in early 2026 for Moussa Diaby. The range is anchored by Al-Ittihad's reported minimum acceptance price of €28 million and their asking price of €40 million. The most likely value is set at €35 million, a figure repeatedly offered by Inter for a loan with an obligation to buy. While his transfer history includes higher fees, this current valuation reflects his desire to leave the Saudi league for a return to European football.
