What if PSG ends up letting Yann Diomande slip away? In a bid to bolster their attack this summer, the Parisian club have targeted the Ivory Coast international (14 caps), who plays for RB Leipzig. Despite pressure from Liverpool, the residents of the Parc des Princes preferred the 19-year-old striker and an agreement has already been reached on the terms of a 5-year contract in the French capital. However, as the matter drags on, Leipzig remains firm in its huge financial demands. Although negotiations are ongoing and PSG seem confident, this situation could very well benefit another club, namely Real Madrid.

According to information from Athletic and from BUILDThe Madrid club has entered the race to sign Diomande and has already begun negotiations with the RBL. The Merengues are looking for a right winger who can compete in this sector or even compensate for the possible departure of Brahim Diaz. The path has been endorsed by Jose Mourinho as the club continues a very ambitious transfer window following the arrivals of Mark Cucurella, Ibrahima Konate, Bernardo Silva and Denzel Dumfries.

Duel between PSG and Real Madrid for Diomande?
However, the file promises to be very complex. Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano goes even further, pointing out that Real Madrid have made an offer of €90 million to the Saxon club, accompanied by €10 million in bonuses. The huge check, however, was rejected by Leipzig, who had already rejected Liverpool’s €100 million offer at the start of the transfer window. If he leaves, the Saxon club demands between 120 and 130 million euros, even if they work to extend his contract themselves.
” We clearly intend to have Yann Diomande play for RB Leipzig next year. » Marcel Schaefer, sports director of the RBL, recently noted. However, the arrival of Real Madrid could completely reshuffle the cards. If they don’t speed up the pace, PSG could see one of its top targets slip through the cracks to their great European rivals.
