According to a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, Brahim Diaz is gaining popularity in the market heading into the summer transfer window. Arsenal and Manchester United are in a three-way battle to sign the Real Madrid playmaker, with AC Milan also vying for the signature of the Moroccan international playmaker.
Brahim Diaz has been in and out of the starting lineup since returning to Real Madrid from a considerable loan spell with AC Milan. While the Malaga native has made his mark whenever he has received the opportunity from Carlo Ancelotti, he has not started as much as he would have liked.
The 25-year-old managed only 2,186 minutes of game time across 52 appearances in all competitions while contributing to 13 goals by finding the back of the net six times and providing seven assists. So, it is hardly surprising that Diaz is a target for several high-profile clubs heading into the summer transfer window.
The report by Fichajes has suggested a three-way battle, with AC Milan competing with Arsenal and Manchester United to sign the Moroccan international from Real Madrid in the summer transfer window. Meanwhile, Los Blancos and Diaz may part ways this summer.
Arsenal’s interest in Brahim Diaz is understandable. The Gunners do not have many creative options apart from Martin Odegaard, and Mikel Arteta wants an alternative to the Norwegian international. So, the Real Madrid playmaker has emerged as a viable target for Arsenal.
As for Manchester United, the Red Devils are keen on reinforcing their creative options in the summer transfer window as Ruben Amorim aims to stamp his authority at the club. So, Diaz is an option worth considering, with the Malaga-born attacker’s versatility making him an attractive option for Manchester United and other suitors.
However, Arsenal and Manchester United face stiff competition from AC Milan for Diaz’s signature. With the 25-year-old Moroccan international previously enjoying a fruitful loan spell with AC Milan, it will not be surprising to see him returning to San Siro in the summer transfer window.
