Real Madrid could soon add another promising talent to its ranks, as Yan Diomande edges closer to a move to the Spanish capital while negotiations with RB Leipzig continue to progress.
According to COPE, the 19-year-old Ivorian international could even take part in his first training sessions with the Madrid squad as early as this week if negotiations are concluded quickly.
This prospect confirms that progress is being made between the various parties.
Impressed by his profile, Jose Mourinho has reportedly made the young winger one of his top priorities to boost his team’s offensive firepower.
PSG, which had also hoped to sign the player, has ultimately dropped out of the race, leaving the field open for Real Madrid.
The challenge now is to convince Leipzig, which is maintaining its high asking price and expects an offer close to 130 million euros to release its Ivorian talent.
