The sun reporting Wolfsburg #10 Diego interested in a move to Arsenal or Saints.

 

Out of contract in the summer, I remember him from the national team, he has hasn't featured from them in a while though.

Would be an incredible signing. We could do with him in january though.

Surely they would likely try to cash in on him in January depending how their season is going, and whether they can get a replacement in

[Bearsy]

Never heard of him to be honest, but everyone knows that Brazilian's with one name are amazing.

Diego, 28, told SunSport: "I know there is interest from Premier League clubs. I have heard Arsenal is one of them.

 

"It would be the ideal destination for me because their style suits my characteristics perfectly. Of course I would say 'yes' to Arsenal.

 

"Southampton have great organisation and discipline and big talents like Adam Lallana. But again there is nothing concrete.

 

"Playing in England is a very attractive option at the peak of my career but I'm focusing on helping Wolfsburg get to the Champions League."

[Crazy Diamond]

Been around for ages hasn't he? Seem to remember he also scored against England for 1 - 1 at Wembley, maybe the first game there? Steve McLaren was on camera and quite clearly said "sh*t".

The next big thing 5 years ago who hasn't done much since.

[Wiggles31]

Would be an awesome signing..... Based on what I read on wiki.

[Wrensup]

He's not really a get stuck in player, can't imagine him fitting in and doing all the closing down and ting that Lalalalalalalana, or Jrodney do ya know.

 

Although I do think he's pretty good, seen him play at Juve and like twice for Wolfyburg.

Only seen brief glimpses of him - so can't make concrete judgements really.

 

Clearly immensely talented, but I'm unsure of his work-rate and desire to play part of a pressing game.

 

Sounds like another South American already on our books.

To Old , To Tempermental , Disruptive Character , No thanks we have much better coming through.

He was THE best prospect on Championship Manager 2003. Him and Oskitz Estefania were the only two young central midfielders you needed for years of stability in that position.

This. Remember him from his time at Porto. An amazing talent, but his head does not fit our team mindset.

[Turkish]

28, EX international, bit of a journey man and not been good for 3 years. Got disaster written all over it.

[Saint Garrett]

Think he'd be a very good signing especially on a free!

[Unbelievable Jeff]

He was awesome a few years ago, went on loan to Atletico and didn't really perform. Wages extremely high I believe (the reason that he was loaned to Atletico).

[Bucks Saint]

no signings in January I thought, so would be next summer if at all

[lambertsrightleg]

does he like sushi?

[Glasgow_Saint]

No thanks
