Yan Diomande Transfer from RB Leipzig to Manchester City
Before the World Cup, Yan Diomande made verbal promises to Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, and both Manchester clubs. RB Leipzig is offering Diomande a contract extension with a significant salary increase to secure his future. The club will not sell Diomande unless the agreement includes an automatic one-year loan for the subsequent season, which would require the buying club to pay the transfer fee immediately but not integrate the player until the next year. The management of RB Leipzig believes it will be difficult to receive an offer exceeding 120 million euros. Diomande's contract with Leipzig is valid until June 30, 2030, and his annual salary is 750,000 euros. His market value is estimated to be 90 million euros.

According to Bild, Diomande is of interest to Man City following his development at Leipzig. City are reportedly among the clubs that send scouts to regularly attend Leipzig matches to watch the winger and request videos for assessment. Bild also states that it is becoming increasingly likely that at least one top club will try to sign Diomande in the next summer transfer window. Leipzig director of sport Marcel Schafer recently admitted that such a deal would validate the club's work, but he hopes to retain the Ivory Coast international for at least one or two more years. A high transfer fee will be necessary to sign Diomande. Leipzig is in a strong negotiating position because the forward does not have a release clause and his contract runs until June 2030. If Diomande's performances are maintained, he could be sold for a price similar to that of Benjamin Sesko (£74 million) or Josko Gvardiol (£77 million).
