Here’s the latest update from the ongoing FIFA World Cup as of 2026-06-29 02:58:00.
Paris Saint-Germain is set to finalize the transfer of Yan Diomande following successful initial discussions with his German club, RB Leipzig. According to sources from ESPN, PSG made their first bid for the Ivory Coast forward on Sunday, and the deal could be wrapped up as early as Monday.
Fast-Track Discussions
Negotiations between both clubs have gained momentum in recent days, involving PSG’s president Nasser Al Khelaifi and Leipzig’s Oliver Mintzlaff. Reports suggest that an agreement could be reached quickly.
French newspaper L’Equipe was the first to announce Diomande’s potential shift to PSG. A transfer fee of approximately €100 million ($114 million) has been proposed, along with possible bonus incentives, which Leipzig seems willing to accept. Although Liverpool is still in contention for his signature, PSG is currently leading the race.
Wider Interest and Contract Agreement
Real Madrid has also shown interest in Diomande and is keeping an eye on the situation. The 19-year-old winger has already signed a five-year contract with PSG and engaged in discussions with manager Luis Enrique and sporting director Luis Campos regarding their vision for the club.
PSG has always been Diomande’s top choice, and he has communicated to Leipzig—where he joined last summer from Leganes for €20 million ($23 million)—his intention to move this summer. Currently participating in the FIFA World Cup 2026 with the Ivory Coast, Diomande’s impressive performances have heightened PSG’s urgency to secure his transfer before the deadline.
