The Bundesliga club paid just €20m to secure his services — a fee that now looks like extraordinary business, given that they are reportedly demanding five times that amount to let him leave.It was reported by Florian Plettenberg on Monday night that Diomande is now Liverpool’s top target to replace Mohamed Salah.But it would seem that Liverpool may have offer in excess of €100m to make any deal a reality.Sky Sports journalist Philipp Hinze has claimed that RB Leipzig have put a valuation of more than €100m on star player Yan Diomande.“RB Leipzig are now demanding more than €100m for Yan Diomande.
