RB Leipzig has significantly raised the asking price for 19-year-old winger Yan Diomande to over £87 million following his standout debut season in the Bundesliga, where he has contributed 13 goals and 8 assists. After acquiring him for just €20 million from Leganés last summer, Leipzig has extended his contract until June 2030, giving them strong leverage in negotiations. While Manchester United is keen on Diomande, they now face a conundrum: either meet the steep asking price, postpone their pursuit until 2027, or explore other options such as Ilman Ndiaye from Everton or Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa. The club's decision will depend on their willingness to invest heavily in a promising talent amid their broader transfer strategy.
