According to talkSPORT, it seems the RB Leipzig winger may be available for £80m this summer, which is lower than previously reported, while that price could even fall further if his club miss out on Champions League qualification.
Writing in his CF Bayern Insider column recently, Christian Falk provided an update on Diomande’s situation, reporting that he could leave Leipzig for around £86.6m this summer.
Falk also named the likes of Liverpool and United as potential suitors for the Ivory Coast international.

With Leipzig now sitting fifth in the Bundesliga and therefore running the risk of missing out on Champions League football for next season, it seems his £80m price tag could go down again.
That’s according to talkSPORT, who state that the likes of Liverpool, United, and Chelsea have been scouting the talented 19-year-old.
It remains to be seen precisely how much Leipzig could end up demanding for Diomande, but some fans might even feel that £80m will end up looking like a bargain.
The teenager has nine goals and four assists so far this season, and it’s easy to imagine him improving on numbers like that if he joins an even bigger club.
How Yan Diomande could fit in
It’s not yet clear if Diomande will definitely move, or where he’d end up, but it’s easy to see why Liverpool might view him as a priority after the drop in form from the ageing Mohamed Salah this season.
