Manchester United Make Reported Bid for RB Leipzig’s Yan Diomande as Talks on Personal Terms Open

Leipzig are said to prefer no January sale, with an asking price near €100m likely pushing any decision until after AFCON.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report United have submitted a formal offer for Diomande, with cited figures varying between about €90m and £78m.
  • Reports say Leipzig have granted United permission to speak with the player’s representatives about a contract.
  • United are described as proposing a five-year deal worth roughly €3.5m per year to the 19-year-old winger.
  • Leipzig’s position is reported as firm for January, supported by a contract to 2030 and no release clause, with an exceptional fee required.
  • Liverpool, Tottenham, Bayern Munich and Manchester City are also credited with interest, while any transfer is widely expected to progress after Ivory Coast’s AFCON campaign.
