RB Leipzig rejects Liverpool’s €100 million bid for Yan Diomande as PSG prepares opening offer

Paris Saint-Germain are poised to make an opening bid for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, ESPN reported on June 21. Liverpool had a €100 million offer turned down, and the Bundesliga club is seeking well over €130 million for the 19-year-old who is currently playing for Ivory Coast at the FIFA World Cup.

PSG have been in contact with Diomande's representatives over the past few weeks regarding personal terms, according to BILD.

Leipzig remain committed to keeping the player at the club. Liverpool have joined Manchester United in the race to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Felix Nmecha, TEAMtalk reported. The 25-year-old signed a new contract with Dortmund earlier this year but is open to a return to England.

A fee around €50 million could tempt Dortmund into negotiations. Chelsea are keeping tabs on Liverpool playmaker Florian Wirtz, with manager Xabi Alonso keen on a reunion with his former Bayer Leverkusen player, Football Insider reported. Any move would depend on the future of Enzo Fernández.

Atlético Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Aston Villa are monitoring Newcastle United forward Nick Woltemade, AS reported. Newcastle are seeking around €65 million for the 24-year-old Germany international whose future will be discussed after the World Cup. Tottenham Hotspur are edging closer to an agreement with Mateus Fernandes over personal terms, Matteo Moretto reported.

The 21-year-old West Ham United midfielder is open to joining Spurs, who have not yet submitted an official offer. Tottenham have had an offer worth around £75 million ($100 million) rejected by Newcastle United for Sandro Tonali, according to ESPN sources.

Manchester City's signing of Elliot Anderson could trigger a chain of moves that would see Nottingham Forest sign Inter Milan's Davide Frattesi, who would be replaced at Inter by Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, Gazzetta dello Sport reported.
