United's Bold Chase: Leipzig's Yan Diomandi Draws a Big Three

Rising Ivory Coast Talent Draws Big Club Attention

Manchester United are among the clubs closely watching RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomandi, eyeing a potential January move, according to Sky Sports on Tuesday.

United still seem unsure whether they need another winger, especially after losing the Semenyo race to Manchester City. If rivals intensify their interest in the January window, Diomandi’s price tag could rise.

Diomandi, 19, is seen as one of Europe’s rising talents. The Ivory Coast international is at the Africa Cup of Nations, alongside Amad Diallo of Manchester United.

Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain are also watching his progress closely, given the eye catching form he has shown with Leipzig.

Previous reports suggested Leipzig valued him at around 87 million pounds (100 million euros), but Sky Sports now estimates a more realistic price between 52m and 61m pounds.

This season, Diomandi has seven goals and four assists in 16 appearances for Leipzig, underscoring his status as one of Europe’s top young talents. If the interest grows, the winter window could become a real tug of war for the young prodigy. Leipzig are known for developing young talent, and their graduates often attract big money offers, complicating negotiations. Fans will watch the winter saga closely.

Punchline: If Diomandi signs for United, the donuts budget might finally get a promotion.
