Well, as reported by Graeme Bailey of Team Talk, Diomandé's representatives have "received fresh approaches" from three leading Premier League clubs, namely Liverpool as well as Manchester City and Arsenal. Why Liverpool are so desperate to sign Yan DiomandéFair to say, Diomandé's rise has been rapid, unexpected and astronomical.

Not only did Diomandé record the most of any man in the Bundesliga, his tally of 118 was 50 more than the player second on that list, his team mate Antonio Nusa, as well as 53 more than third-place Michael Olise.

This underlines that Diomandé is one of the world's best dribblers, while he does have the end product to match, recording nine assists and creating 17 big chances; only Olise, David Raum, Julian Ryerson and Harry Kane racked up more across Germany's top division. Thus, if anyone can fill Salah's enormous void in the Liverpool forward line, the 19 year old Ivorian is a pretty decent candidate, albeit he is more likely to end up in Paris than on Merseyside at this stage.
