Vila are closing in on a deal for Diaby

The 24-year-old, who has nine international caps to his name and is a product of the Paris St Germain academy, is one of the hottest properties to come from the Bundesliga in recent years.

Unai Emery's Villa are going big to target their man, and look to have beaten other European clubs as well as interest from Saudi Arabia to land their man.

Chance from Thomas Tuchel

Diaby first burst onto the scene when he was the recipient of the 2016 Titi d'Or, the award for the most promising talent in PSG's academy.

A loan spell at Crotone in Italy brought about his senior debut - before he returned to PSG and was given his big break by Tuchel.
