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

Leipzig’s demand for a much higher fee raises the prospect of a multi‑club auction that would push the transfer price beyond Liverpool’s opening package.

Overview

  • Liverpool’s initial proposal of €90m plus €10m in add‑ons was officially rejected and the club is preparing an improved, larger offer.
  • RB Leipzig value Diomandé at roughly €120m–€130m, want to keep him on his contract to 2030 and have opened talks about a new deal rather than a sale.
  • Paris Saint‑Germain have been reported to be in contact with Diomandé’s representatives and could submit a rival bid that would strengthen Leipzig’s negotiating position.
  • Diomandé’s World Cup displays, including a man‑of‑the‑match showing against Ecuador, have increased his market leverage and sources say he is tempted to move this summer while his agents handle talks.
  • If Liverpool choose to meet Leipzig’s valuation they would likely pay a market premium or else shift to alternative targets, and the absence of a release clause gives Leipzig clear leverage to extract a higher fee.
