PSG face transfer threat as Liverpool push for Yan Diomandé
With the summer transfer window officially open, Paris Saint-Germain may be planning a major move. One name frequently linked with the capital club is Yan Diomandé. The RB Leipzig winger, currently representing Côte d’Ivoire at the World Cup, is highly sought after — and PSG now have reason to worry about this transfer.
This summer could see changes in PSG’s attacking line. Among the potential arrivals under Luis Enrique, the name of Yan Diomandé stands out. At just 19, the Ivorian teenager is attracting strong interest on the market. PSG are reportedly keen, but another club has already made its move for the RB Leipzig star.
Diomandé and Liverpool: is a deal heating up?
For PSG, the threat comes from Liverpool in the Yan Diomandé saga. The Reds are preparing for life after Mohamed Salah and that could lead them to sign the Ivorian from RB Leipzig. The English club has informed their German counterparts of their intention to pay €100m for Diomandé. Liverpool appear to be in the lead, but PSG remain in the race, still interested in the player currently competing at the World Cup.
RB Leipzig holding onto their star
On the Liverpool and Yan Diomandé front, further details suggest the English club has already submitted an offer of €90m plus €10m in add-ons for the young winger. However, RB Leipzig are expected to reject it, as they have no desire to sell the Ivorian to Liverpool or PSG. Across the Rhine, the club wants to keep Diomandé, planning to extend his contract and increase his salary.
