Overview
- Multiple reports indicate Liverpool’s scouting staff are pushing for a January bid for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, though no formal offers have been confirmed.
- RB Leipzig are reported to value Diomande at around €100m and, with a long contract in place, a mid-season deal is viewed as challenging.
- The 19-year-old’s surge includes a Bundesliga hat-trick against Eintracht Frankfurt, seven goals and three assists in 11 starts, league-leading take-ons, and one of the top recorded speeds.
- Transfer links span England and Europe, with Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Newcastle, Tottenham, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, and Bayern Munich all credited with interest.
- Uncertainty around Mohamed Salah’s future and his imminent AFCON absence are adding urgency to Liverpool’s forward planning, with Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo also monitored but heavily courted elsewhere.
