Liverpool<\/a> are reportedly leading the race to sign RB Leipzig forward Yan Diomande, as per a recent report.<\/strong><\/p>\n After being impressed by the 19-year-old\u2019s performances for Legan\u00e9s, the German side decided to secure his services last summer.<\/p>\n The youngster enjoyed a stellar campaign this term, scoring 13 goals and registering nine assists in 36 appearances across all competitions. Moreover, he has helped his side qualify for next season\u2019s Champions League<\/a>.<\/p>\n Having proven his worth in the Bundesliga, Diomande has secured his place in the Ivory Coast national team\u2019s starting line-up and is set to play a key role for his country in this summer\u2019s World Cup.<\/p>\n Now, as per a recent report (via Fichajes<\/span><\/a>), Diomande\u2019s recent progress has not gone unnoticed, as he has started attracting a lot of attention ahead of the summer window.<\/p>\n Manchester City<\/a> and Paris Saint-Germain have expressed their interest in him and have already held informal talks before making a potential swoop this summer.<\/p>\n However, Liverpool have taken the \u2018lead\u2019 in this race after holding secret talks with the player\u2019s representatives. They are even preparing to launch a proposal.<\/p>\n However, Leipzig have no intention of letting him leave after qualifying for next season\u2019s Champions League, with his existing deal set to run until 2030. They might demand more than \u00a386m<\/span><\/a> if they are eventually forced to cash-in on him this summer.<\/p>\n Diomande is a right-footed left-winger by trait but is also comfortable on the opposite side. He is quick, technically sound, can dribble past opposition defenders in tight areas, can create opportunities for fellow attackers, and also works hard without possession.<\/p>\n![\"Rememore](\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/FootballTalk_New_Chapter-rememore.png\")
