Liverpool Step Up Pursuit of Leipzig’s Yan Diomande as Early Move Weighed

Leipzig’s need to generate a significant summer sale is expected to drive a high fee for the 19-year-old winger.

Overview

  • Liverpool have intensified scouting of Yan Diomande in recent matches and are being urged, per multiple reports, to make an early approach.
  • RB Leipzig are understood to value Diomande around €100m as the club seeks to raise roughly that amount in sales this summer.
  • Fresh reporting flags growing competition, with Bayern, PSG, Real Madrid and Barcelona tracking him, while Manchester United and Tottenham are now described as 'locked in' on the player.
  • Some sources quoted in the latest coverage suggest clubs believe the eventual price could land between €60m and €80m rather than the €80m–€100m widely cited.
  • Liverpool’s interest is reported to be independent of Mohamed Salah’s immediate future, and Diomande has downplayed talk of Liverpool being his personal 'dream' club.
