Arsenal Send Scouts as RB Leipzig Teen Yan Diomande Draws Elite Interest

Leipzig are weighing a new deal for the 18-year-old, with reports placing his price near €100 million.

Overview

  • Arsenal and Liverpool have monitored Diomande in person this season, with Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham also tracking him.
  • Scouts watched him star in a 3-1 win over Stuttgart at the weekend, where he scored and was named Player of the Match.
  • The 18-year-old has produced three goals and three assists in ten matches under Ole Werner, marking a rapid Bundesliga breakout.
  • Leipzig signed him in the summer after triggering his Leganes release clause and now have him on a five-year contract without a buyout clause, according to reporting.
  • Reports say Leipzig could look to improve his terms as talk of a potential fee rises toward about £88m (€100m), with any major move viewed as more likely next summer.
