Paris, France: Paris Saint-Germain are in talks with Bundesliga side RB Leipzig to buy Ivory Coast forward Yan Diomande, a source close to the dossier told AFP.
The 19-year-old has told the German club he wants to join the French giants and the two clubs opened negotiations after Diomande, who is under contract with Leipzig until 2030, told PSG management he was "very keen" to sign for the reigning European champions this summer, the source added.
His arrival would also likely involve the departure of Portuguese forward Goncalo Ramos to AC Milan with PSG having reached a deal with the Italian outfit, the source said.
Born in Abidjan, Diomande spent a few months in 2025 at Spanish club Leganes, then in La Liga, and has played for Leipzig for one season, scoring 12 goals in the Bundesliga.
The arrival of the forward, who is preparing for the Ivory Coast's World Cup last 32 match with Norway on Tuesday, would mark PSG's first major move of this summer transfer window.
