Liverpool Preparing Bigger Bid After €100m Offer for Yan Diomandé Is Rejected

A wide valuation gap with RB Leipzig and interest from PSG means the next move could force a bidding contest or see Leipzig keep their 19‑year‑old star.

Overview

  • Earlier this week Liverpool lodged an initial offer reported as €90m plus €10m in add‑ons that RB Leipzig rejected.
  • Sources including Fabrizio Romano say Liverpool will return with a significantly larger, 'big' proposal as they press to sign Diomandé.
  • RB Leipzig value Diomandé at roughly €120–130m, are trying to tie him to an improved contract and currently prefer to keep him for another season.
  • Paris Saint‑Germain are monitoring the situation and could make a formal approach if they free space in their attack, which would raise the chance of a bidding war.
  • Diomandé is concentrating on Ivory Coast's World Cup campaign while Roc Nation Sport manage talks and his long contract to 2030 gives Leipzig strong negotiating leverage that could push fees higher and shape the summer market for young attackers.
