£50m Toon target scores again to set up semi-final clash with Jose Mourinho - Watch here

Earlier this week, reports in Germany and France once again tipped Newcastle United to make a summer move for Moussa Diaby.

The Bayer Leverkusen star has been superb this season and was at his brilliant best last night, scoring within 90 seconds (you can watch the goal here) to give the Bundesliga an early lead in their Europa League clash with Union Saint-Gilloise.

It was the second leg of their quarter-final clash and one they won 4-1, setting up a semi-final against Jose Mourinho's Roma after the Italian giants beat Feyenoord in extra-time.

Diaby won't come cheap, with his value likely to be rising after 14 goals and nine assists this season. However, it's clear we hold long-term interest in the 23-year-old after strong links last summer.

He stayed put last summer after Leverkusen qualified for the Champions League, but you'd hope a move to Tyneside would appeal if we are in a position to offer big European nights to the Frenchman next season.
