Overview
- Sky in Germany reported Thursday that Liverpool are in contact with Yan Diomande’s agents about a possible summer move.
- RB Leipzig are preparing a new contract for the 19-year-old that would raise his pay and exclude a release clause to keep control of any sale.
- Leipzig have set an internal valuation of around €100 million (£87m) and would only consider offers starting at that level.
- Diomande has produced roughly 11 goals and 8 assists this season, which explains the surge of interest in a teenager tied to Leipzig long term.
- Mohamed Salah’s planned exit has sharpened Liverpool’s need for a winger, but without a release clause any deal would rely on hard negotiations and could drag on as other elite clubs track the player.
