What happened?
The 19-year-old Yan Diomande returned to RB Leipzig after his World Cup break. However, there are huge games around a Real offer for the 19-year-old Elfenbeinküste winger who was offered Real Madrid.
Why it matters for RB Leipzig
The 19-year-old Yan Diomande is an important player for RB Leipzig. He has already stated several times that he wants to leave this summer. His current goal: Real Madrid!
What comes next?
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano announced on Sunday evening that the Spaniards and RB Leipzig had agreed on a transfer for a fee over 100 million euros and Diomande would fly to Spain this week for a medical check. However, there is still no agreement between the clubs. All previous offers were rejected. The twice DFB-Pokals winner demands at least 120 million euros for Diomande.
PSG has withdrawn from the negotiations
Last time there was a hint of an agreement with Champions League winner PSG. However, the French club has withdrawn from the negotiations with a loud statement. So, the club said in a statement to the Spanish Marca and Sky, that they have ended the negotiations. „The demanded transfer fee and the salary demands were completely disproportionate“, it says.
Trainer Martin Demichelis will continue with Diomande
Trainer Martin Demichelis (45) will therefore also continue with the RB-Star. The Leipzig fans will not see him play with the team in the afternoon training session due to the previous performance test. He will only return to the pitch in Leipzig in the course of the week – if Real does not increase its offer significantly.
