Yan Diomande has reportedly chosen Paris Saint-Germain over Liverpool as the transfer race for the RB Leipzig winger takes a major turn toward the Parc des Princes.
According to talkSPORT, the 19-year-old has agreed a five-year deal with PSG, leaving Liverpool to step away after pushing a package worth £69 million plus £17.3 million in add-ons. The report adds that PSG are now in direct talks with Leipzig, with Nasser Al-Khelaifi involved at ownership level.
Luis Enrique Project Changes PSG Transfer Race
The shift is significant because Sky Sports had previously reported Liverpool contact with Leipzig while noting PSG interest and Diomande’s public admiration for the French champions.
For Luis Enrique, this would be another aggressive recruitment swing at elite one-v-one talent rather than a simple squad-depth move. Diomande is under contract until 2030, so Leipzig still hold real leverage, but player preference can reshape expensive deals quickly.
The timing matters, too. PSG’s attack already carries heavy competition, yet Diomande’s pace, direct running and World Cup profile fit the club’s push to keep refreshing an already trophy-winning group before rivals can close the gap.
ReadPSG has already tracked the wider Diomande-PSG-Liverpool race. This update moves the story from interest into a clear test of whether Paris will now match the player’s ambition with the fee Leipzig demand.
