RB Leipzig Calm Amid Growing Transfer Interest
RB Leipzig remain relaxed about the future of Yan Diomande, with the Bundesliga club demanding at least €100 million for the highly rated attacker in the upcoming summer transfer window. According to reports circulating in European media, Leipzig will only consider such a fee if Diomande’s performances in the second half of the season continue at their current level.
Transfer speculation surrounding the player has already been widely covered by major outlets such as Sky Sports and ESPN, reflecting the growing attention from elite clubs across Europe.
Top Clubs Target €60–70m Deal — Leipzig Say No
Several top European clubs are reportedly hoping to secure Diomande for a fee between €60 and €70 million, believing that range represents fair market value. However, Leipzig have no intention of negotiating at that level.
As reported by Goal.com and Football365, Leipzig view Diomande as a cornerstone of their project and are prepared to keep him unless their valuation is fully met.
Potential Record Sale for RB Leipzig
If a €100 million transfer is completed, Yan Diomande would become RB Leipzig’s most expensive sale in history, surpassing the €90 million move of Joško Gvardiol to Manchester City.
That previous record-breaking deal was extensively covered by BBC Sport and The Athletic, and Leipzig believe Diomande’s trajectory could justify an even higher fee.
Why Leipzig Hold the Upper Hand
RB Leipzig’s strong negotiating position is based on several key factors:
- Long-term contract protecting the player’s value
- Consistent performances at Bundesliga and European level
- Rising demand from multiple elite clubs
- A proven track record of selling at peak value
Transfer market analysis from Transfermarkt supports Leipzig’s stance, showing a rapid increase in Diomande’s estimated market value over the last 12 months.
Second Half of the Season Will Be Crucial
Everything now depends on Diomande’s performances in the second half of the season. Leipzig’s hierarchy are confident, but any stagnation could affect negotiations. If he continues his upward trend, the club expects serious offers closer to their €100m valuation.
According to Eurosport, Leipzig are prepared to resist pressure and wait for the right buyer, rather than accept a discounted deal.
Conclusion
RB Leipzig have made their position clear: Yan Diomande will not be sold cheaply. With elite clubs circling and a potential record-breaking transfer on the table, the summer window could see one of the most significant deals in Bundesliga history — provided Diomande continues to deliver on the pitch.
