Real Madrid makes a 180-degree turn and now beats Yan Diomande

Manos Staramopoulos • 25 de julio de 2026

The Ivorian forward is a target for Real Madrid, which is prepared to pay 120 million euros to sign him.

First, the Real Madrid management realized that for this year at least there is no chance that Bayern Munich will give up the international French winger, Michael Olise. So they decided to change the question. Unless it is a tactical move… That of course will be seen soon. In any case.


Yan Diomande is therefore expected to become Real Madrid's biggest transfer move for the summer of 2026. The 19-year-old left-footed midfielder and with only two seasons in Leganes and RB Leipzig, has become one of the most sought-after footballers in Europe.


Diomande deal was no fluke, although things have certainly accelerated this week, culminating in a trip to Germany where representatives from both clubs met face-to-face after Real Madrid secured the player's deal. Diomande was a star performer in last season's Bundesliga, alongside Oliseh.

It's a move very similar to the Cucurella deal. While other clubs were discussing their interest in the Spanish international left-back, Real Madrid chose to approach Chelsea directly and have completed a deal, something they are now close to doing with RB Leipzig.


The deal has not been finalised, but everything suggests the transfer will be completed for around €115-120m. Until now, everything indicated that the future of the former Leganes footballer would be in Paris Saint-Germain, as was said during the FIFA World Cup 2026, now everything seems to be taking a different turn.



The Real Madrid administration moved quietly and, taking advantage of the constant rumors surrounding Michael Oliseh, turned its attention to the talented Leipzig ace.


The agreement with the African footballer will not create a problem in the salary structure of Real Madrid. Its president, Florentino Perez, has done his "accounts" and there is no issue with the club's finances. After all, all or most sponsors around the world are eager to advertise for themselves through Real...
