Real Madrid have reportedly thrown their hat into the ring for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, complicating matters for a growing list of suitors, according to journalist David Ornstein.
The Ivorian, who impressed at last year's World Cup, is understood to already be attracting interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool, with the Reds said to be exploring a move as they look to strengthen their attacking options. Madrid's entry into the race, as reported by EPL Index, is described as significant given their pulling power and history of winning direct battles for top young talent.
For Leipzig, any deal would likely mean cashing in on one of their most exciting prospects, while for Liverpool it represents another potential transfer target being contested by Europe's elite. Nothing is imminent, but with Real Madrid's interest now confirmed by Ornstein, Diomande's next move looks set to become one of the more closely watched sagas of the summer window.
