Liverpool and Chelsea are interested in signing the RB Leipzig attacker Yan Diomande.
The 19-year-old has been excellent in the Bundesliga and has impressed for his country as well. He could prove to be an excellent long-term acquisition for both Premier League clubs, and it remains to be seen whether they decide to make a move for him at the end of the season.
