RB Leipzig have slapped a £87.3m (€100m) on Liverpool and Manchester United target Yan Diomande, according to Sky in Germany.
It is claimed that although the Bundesliga side want to keep the teenager for another season, they will consider offers for him starting at £87.3m (€100m).
RB Leipzig want to reward the 19-year-old with a new deal and a performance-based pay rise, but there would be no release clause included in the new contract.
Liverpool are reportedly closely monitoring the Ivory Coast international and remain in contact with his agents.
The Reds will be searching for a Mohamed Salah replacement this summer, with the 33-year-old departing Anfield at the end of the season.
But Liverpool will face competition for Diomande’s signature.
MEZIESBLOG understands Man Utd have emerged as one of the clubs with the strongest interest.
There is also interest in him from Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, too, while he has been tracked by Tottenham.
Diomande is set to be one of the most coveted wingers this summer, having scored 11 goals and provided eight assists in 29 games across all competitions for Leipzig this season.
Diomande is set to star at this summer’s World Cup for Ivory Coast, and you can read more about him here in our Next Up special on the tournament’s rising stars!
