Premier League
Yan Diomandé, Ivorian winger, 19 years old from RB Leipzig, has become one of the big names in the market. While Real Madrid is in discussions to secure his signing, Manchester City has informed the German club that they are prepared to make an offer of 100 million euros, although there is currently no official proposal.
The scenario complicates an operation that already faced strong competition. According to the latest reports, both Real Madrid and Liverpool have had offers close to 100 million euros rejected, while Leipzig maintains a higher valuation and continues negotiations from a position of strength.
Real Madrid prioritizes Yan Diomandé
The interest of Real Madrid in Yan Diomandé has intensified in recent days. The Spanish club has reportedly reached an agreement with the player's entourage and subsequently increased contacts with Leipzig, including meetings between the two entities to bridge their positions.
The initial offer from Real Madrid, valued at around 100 million euros in fixed and variable amounts, was rejected. The German club believes the final price should be between 115 and 120 million, with some reports even suggesting a demand close to 130 million before agreeing to the sale.
The Ivorian forward has a long-term contract with Leipzig, strengthening the Bundesliga club's negotiating position. Therefore, any agreement will depend on one of the suitors increasing their economic proposal in the coming weeks.

Manchester City joins the bidding, Olise loses ground
The entrance of Manchester City adds another top-level competitor. According to information by Florian Plettenberg, the English club has verbally expressed willingness to reach 100 million euros, although an official offer to Leipzig has not been formalized yet.
Meanwhile, the name of Olise is losing significance in Real Madrid's planning. The sports priority is Yan Diomandé, whose ability to play on both wings fits the offensive profile sought by the Spanish club. This decision would explain why the entity has focused its resources on the negotiation with the German club.
In addition to Manchester City and Real Madrid, Liverpool continues to monitor the development of the case after receiving a negative response to their initial offer. PSG, despite being linked to the player for weeks, has not yet presented a formal proposal to Leipzig, according to available information.
Leipzig awaits a new offensive for Yan Diomandé
The next move will depend on the interested clubs. Real Madrid is considering improving their offer to meet Leipzig's economic demands, while Manchester City is evaluating transforming their contacts into an official proposal. With several European powers interested in Yan Diomandé, negotiations are likely to remain open in the coming days and may only be resolved when one entity reaches the amount demanded by the German club.
