Yan Diomande continues to be linked with a move to the Premier League, and Tottenham Hotspur have been mentioned as a potential destination.
The 19-year-old Ivorian is a tremendous talent, and he has shown his quality in the Bundesliga with RB Leipzig. He has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. Several Premier League clubs are keeping tabs on his progress. According to Florian Plettenberg, the ‘incredible talent’ is on the radar of the North London club.
Yan Diomande price revealed
He is likely to cost around €100 million, and a transfer might be possible after the World Cup in the summer. It will be interesting to see if Tottenham come forward with an offer to get the deal done. They would have to break their transfer record to get the deal done.
It will be interesting to see if the London club is willing to pay that kind of money for him. There is no doubt that Diomande has the potential to develop into a star, but he is still largely unproven. The North London outfit might prefer to sign him for a more reasonable amount of money.
Bidding war for Diomande?
Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City are interested in the 19-year-old as well. RB Leipzig will certainly hope that there is a bidding war for the player at the end of the season so that they can recoup as much as possible for him. They will not want to lose their prized young prospect easily.
Tottenham recently signed Xavi Simons from the German club, and they will hope to cash in on the amicable terms between the two clubs and get the deal done. They need more unpredictability on the flanks, and the 19-year-old would be the ideal acquisition. His explosive pace and flair could add a new dimension to their attacking unit.
