Yan Diomande, a 19-year-old winger from RB Leipzig, has accepted the personal terms offered to him to become a new player for the Real Madrid, which is already preparing a second offer to secure his signing this summer. Paris Saint-Germain continues to bid and demands the player to honor the verbal agreement reached earlier.

Real Madrid has taken the lead after presenting an initial proposal of 100 million euros, rejected by the German club. The deal could approach 120 million, although RB Leipzig aims to receive around 130 million for the Ivorian international.

Real Madrid Prepares a New Offer for Yan Diomande

Real Madrid has already received consent from Yan Diomande to negotiate his transfer. The personal agreement now allows the Concha Espina club to focus on reaching a deal with the club that owns his rights.

The first attempt by Real Madrid was not sufficient. RB Leipzig turned down an offer composed of a fixed fee close to 90 million euros and another 10 million in variables, considering the valuation of the winger to be above that figure.

The Madrid executives are working on an improved offer that could range between 115 and 120 million euros. This amount would narrow the gap with the German team's demands, as they have the player under contract until June 30, 2030.

The long contract duration allows Leipzig to control the negotiation timeline. Their sporting director, Marcel Schäfer, had publicly stated the intention to keep Diomande, but the involvement of two clubs capable of exceeding 100 million euros has altered the scenario.

Paris Saint-Germain Persists in Pursuing Yan Diomande

Paris Saint-Germain had previously reached a verbal agreement with the player for a five-year contract. However, the lack of a definitive agreement with RB Leipzig left the operation open, allowing the entry of the Madrid side.

The French club has resumed talks with Yan Diomande's entourage to regain their position. Their main argument is the prior commitment between the parties, although that pact does not bind the winger to sign until there is an agreement between the clubs.

Diomande subsequently approved the Real Madrid proposal, now leading the race for his signing. The shift in dynamics forces PSG to decide whether to enhance their financial terms or stick to the offer negotiated during the early weeks of summer.

A Contract Until 2030 and Double-Digit Figures

Yan Diomande arrived in Germany in July 2025 and signed a five-year contract. During his first full season in the Bundesliga, he scored 12 goals and provided 8 assists, stats that boosted his price after just one season in German football.

The winger can play on both flanks, though he has spent most of his minutes on the left side. His age, offensive output, and the remaining four years on his contract explain RB Leipzig's negotiation stance.

The upcoming Real Madrid proposal will determine the next phase of the operation. If it approaches 120 million euros, the German club will have to decide whether to open the door to the transfer or maintain their demand of 130 million, while Paris Saint-Germain seeks to sway Yan Diomande's decision before the final agreement.
