Aston Villa is among several Premier League clubs interested in Yan Diomande. Fabrizio Romano confirms there is concrete interest from both sides of the Channel. Diomande currently earns an annual salary of 750,000 euros in Germany. Transfermarkt values the player at 45 million euros. A transfer could potentially reach 100 million euros.

Several clubs have inquired about a potential January transfer for Yan Diomande. RB Leipzig have stated their clear position that he is not for sale mid-season, and CEO Oliver Mintzlaff has claimed that Diomande will also not be available in the summer. However, many believe that this is a negotiating position from the Red Bull chief and that Leipzig will sell if their valuation is met. Some suitors are hopeful that Yan Diomande's price will be lowered to €60m, but for now, Leipzig are maintaining the €100m figure. Florian Plettenberg reports that his final valuation will ultimately be influenced by his performances in the second half of the season.

Yan Diomande is a 19-year-old winger from Cote d'Ivoire who plays for RB Leipzig. According to Florian Plettenberg, Aston Villa is one of several clubs interested in him, a list that also includes Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man Utd. The German club is demanding a club-record €100 million ($118.3 million) for the player, who is also regularly scouted by Manchester City. Diomande has a contract until 2030, has 6 goals and 3 assists in 16 Bundesliga appearances this season, and has scored 3 goals in 9 caps for his country. It was reported in January 2026 that Manchester United had bids of €60m, €70m, and €90m rejected for the player.
