World cup performance could trigger €100m PSG move for Ivorian star
Fresh off their second consecutive Ligue des champions triumph, PSG is shifting its focus to the summer transfer market. The club’s leadership is intent on rejuvenating Luis Enrique’s roster for the season ahead. While many names have been circulated, Yan Diomandé of RB Leipzig has become a key figure in their plans. The 19-year-old winger’s stellar performance during Côte d’Ivoire‘s opening match at the Coupe du monde 2026 has significantly boosted his profile and could reignite transfer negotiations.

Competition for his signature intensifies
However, the Parisian club is not the only one monitoring the situation. Liverpool is also actively seeking to sign another winger, and Diomandé features prominently on their shortlist. His impressive displays at the World Cup are drawing wider attention, which means other top clubs could soon join the pursuit for the talented Ivorian.
RB Leipzig’s €100M valuation
Securing the winger will require a significant financial commitment. His current club, RB Leipzig, is determined to keep him and has set an asking price in the region of €100M. This steep valuation has been communicated to PSG and any other potential suitors. It remains uncertain whether the Rouge-et-Bleu will agree to such a substantial fee, as the club’s decision-makers, Luis Campos and Luis Enrique, have historically been cautious about authorising nine-figure transfers. The developments will be followed with great interest.
