RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande is on the radar of Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United, according to The Pitch Prospect.
Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have also made initial inquiries for the 19-year-old Ivory Coast international.

Leipzig doesn’t want to sell in the middle of the season, and Diomande’s participation in the African Cup of Nations makes a winter move even more difficult.
However, interested parties are reaching for RB Leipzig’s 100 million euros [£87.2m] The price is high and I believe a deal for just under 60 million euros could be possible [£52.3m].
But summer could be a better time for those interested in moving.
Diomande is one of the most sought-after talents in world football and had an outstanding first season with Leipzig.
Since joining from Leganes, the teenager has scored seven goals and provided four assists in 16 appearances in all competitions.
Since Diamonde is only in his first season with Leipzig, the Red Bull club is in no rush to sell.
Prem giants engaged in battle
Manchester United are still looking for a winger after the absence of Antoine Semenyo.
Although adding a winger is not as high a priority as revamping the central midfield, it is still a goal for 2026.
Tottenham also want to sign a left winger and still have Manchester City’s Savinho on their radar.
Man City CEO Ferran Soriano is said to have blocked a summer move to north London despite Spurs being prepared to pay around £70m.

Oscar Bobb is the most likely winter departure if Semenyo’s move to the Etihad goes through as expected, but Savinho’s long-term future remains uncertain.
Liverpool are also said to be interested in Diomande.
Some reports suggest that the club recently held a meeting with the player’s camp.
However, The Pitch Prospect understands there has been no recent contact with the Reds.
Diomande’s incredible rise
As of 2024, Diomande was still playing semi-professional soccer in the United States.
But over the last year the teenager has risen to the top of European football, starting in Spain with Leganes.

He joined the La Liga side in November 2024, scored his first goal in May 2025 and made a splash in just ten league games.
That led to Leipzig paying his release clause and bringing him to Germany, just eight months after his spell at Leganes.
Since his move, he has scored six times in the Bundesliga and once in the DFB Cup.
Diomande has also won seven caps for Ivory Coast and has played every game for his country at the AFCON so far.
