Inter Milan are preparing a new offer to sign Al-Ittihad winger Moussa Diaby in the winter transfer window (h/t journalist Fabrice Hawkins).

The Nerazzurri have already seen their loan proposal with a €35 million buy option rejected by the Saudi Pro League giants.

However, the 26-year-old is keen on securing a move to the San Siro. He has reached an agreement on personal terms for a contract worth €4.5m per year.

Al-Ittihad are open to parting ways with Diaby only on a permanent sale or if Inter include a mandatory purchase option in the deal.

Tottenham Hotspur have enquired about the Frenchman’s availability, but his preference for Inter gives them an edge.

Diaby has been a pivotal figure since joining Al-Ittihad in 2024, bagging eight goals and 27 assists over the last two seasons.

Inter manager Cristian Chivu has called Diaby directly to convince him to move to the San Siro.

With Inter not known for deploying wingers in their 3-5-2 formation, Diaby may have to adapt to a newer role, such as wing-back.

The Nerazzurri are working on numerous deals before Monday’s transfer deadline.

They have agreed personal terms with Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones. His arrival could facilitate Davide Frattesi’s exit, with Nottingham Forest pushing to sign him.

Yanis Massolin of Serie B club Modena is closing in on a move to Inter, with talks in the final stages.

Inter are also in talks to sign Genoa full-back Brooke Norton-Cuffy as a replacement for Denzel Dumfries.
