Transfers – Diomande and Akliouche, PSG want to make a splash

Yan Diomande, a 19-year-old forward for RB Leipzig (under contract until 2030) and the Ivory Coast, has been mentioned amid a race involving some of Europe’s biggest clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain. L’Equipe confirmed this Sunday that the player has chosen to join PSG, and Maghnes Akliouche (a 24-year-old attacking midfielder/winger for AS Monaco) is also getting closer.

“Paris will be able to speed things up.”

“As reported by ‘The Athletic’ and confirmed by L’Équipe, Yan Diomandé, the 19-year-old Ivorian winger currently shining at the Club World Cup, informed the capital club that he wanted to sign this summer. Despite Liverpool’s persistence, having already made a move with Leipzig, the Ivorian chose to prioritize PSG for his future. Now that the winger’s decision has been made, Paris will be able to speed things up, as in the Maghnes Akliouche case, in an attempt to finalize this arrival as quickly as possible. The signings of Diomandé and Akliouche would offset the departures of Gonçalo Ramos and Lee Kang-in.”

After a long quiet spell, PSG’s transfer window is picking up pace. The departures of Gonçalo Ramos and Lee Kang-In are now very close, with top-level replacements seemingly being lined up. Diomande and Akliouche would be excellent attacking reinforcements, with talent still to be refined, a hunger for victory, and a certain versatility.

Be careful, however: nothing has been confirmed yet. The transfer market can move very quickly and produce surprises, as it has in recent days. We have to wait for something concrete before being certain.
