In recent days, former Tottenham midfielder Stefan Freund has told Diomande to remain at his current club, saying: “He should stay in Leipzig for another year. If he maintains his excellent form next season, he can still move to a big club.



Liverpool could just pull their finger out, and it’d be done in the next day or two.” Liverpool to sign Yan Diomande…after the World Cup? The Ivory Coast international is impressing at the World Cup, and his focus needs to be on that, but sealing a deal is a big priority for Liverpool once his involvement in the tournament has finished.

While Leipzig aren’t budging currently, it does feel like Diomande will end up at either Liverpool or Paris Saint-Germain this summer, and it would be a major coup if the Reds strike a deal. The Leipzig star isn’t yet a complete player, which is only natural at his age, but he is a frightening talent who is already impacting matches regularly.
