Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal were all reportedly told that Yan Diomande has no interest in joining them after contact was made with his agents this week. It’s difficult to believe that Diomande (19) has just a single full season under his belt in the Bundesliga, but his talent is undeniable.



Liverpool, Man City, Arsenal all sent packing by Diomande’s representatives According to a report from TEAMtalk journalist Graeme Bailey, Liverpool and their rivals were all rejected by Diomande’s agents this week after making fresh approaches. Bailey reports: “Yan Diomande’s representatives have received fresh approaches from Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City over the past week, but each club has been given the same message – the winger remains committed to joining Paris Saint-Germain.

“However, sources can confirm that PSG head coach Luis Enrique wants Diomande available immediately and has made it clear he wants the Ivory Coast sensation integrated into his squad this summer rather than delaying his arrival. “PSG are standing firm on their stance and are prepared to pay around €110million (£93.5m, $126m) to conclude the deal.” Liverpool need to use PSG’s interest in Diomande to sign Bradley Barcola A new report suggests that PSG will only sell Barcola for a fee in the region of €150m (£127m), but hopefully this does not deter Liverpool from getting a deal done.
