Villa coach Emery: "Diaby is one player we were following"

Moussa Diaby has decided to continue his professional career in the Premier League. He will play in an Aston Villa shirt next season, the English club announced on Saturday.

Unai Emery, who coaches Villa, spoke about the 24-year-old's signing at a press conference and said he was a long-awaited player in Birmingham.

"He is a winger, a striker and his best part is his capacity to attack, dribbling, running behind. He has experience in Europe, he’s young and I think the qualities he’s going to give us, playing in different positions as well, I think he’s going to give us more power," he began.

"For us, Moussa Diaby is one player we were following. We are really excited and are really happy with him. We have to build again our structure and Moussa is giving us another important step ahead," the Spaniard concluded.
