Yan Diomandé focuses on World Cup, rejects Liverpool, eyes PSG transfer

Ivory Coast forward Yan Diomandé, 19, has emphasized that transfer speculation does not distract him from the 2022 World Cup, where he helped his nation reach the knockout stage for the first time. He said he does not use social media and leaves contract talks to his agent, keeping his attention on the tournament.

Diomandé also turned down a reported €100 million bid from Liverpool, stating his preference for a move to Paris Saint‑Germain. RB Leipzig, which holds his economic rights, has set a minimum price of €130 million. PSG is expected to formalise a proposal, attracted by his World Cup performances that raised his international profile. The player believes PSG offers the best chance to win titles and develop his career.
