Sporting open talks for Moussa Diaby and Pote could be part of the deal | OneFootball

Sporting are in talks as they try to sign Moussa Diaby, the French winger who plays for Al Ittihad. One of the possibilities on the table is the inclusion of Pedro Gonçalves in the deal, with the two players potentially moving in opposite directions.

The information was reported by SIC Notícias on the program ‘Mercado Aberto’. At this stage, the talks between the Lions and the Saudi club are still exploratory, and there is no agreement between the parties for the transfer of the French international.

Pote has been in negotiations for several weeks to move to Al Ittihad, so the situation involving the number 8 could be used in a possible deal for Diaby, since the Saudis even need to offload foreign players. Sporting are trying to understand the conditions needed to secure the winger in this final stretch of the transfer window.

Another factor that could move the process forward is the expected trip to Portugal by a representative of Moussa Diaby in the coming days. That contact could help clarify the viability of a possible move for the player to Alvalade.

Known above all for his pace and ability to beat defenders, the Frenchman now appears as a major option to strengthen Rui Borges’ attack, although the matter is still at an early stage.
