😱Doubts grow: what's holding up Diomandé's move to Real Madrid? | OneFootball

Yan Diomandé’s transfer to Real Madrid has hit an unexpected setback. Although the agreement with RB Leipzig was fully finalized, the player’s presentation has been put on hold due to a complaint filed by his former agent, Max Gradel.

Complaint filed with FIFA over breach of contract

Gradel claims there was a breach of contract regarding the terms agreed with the footballer. The Madrid club, which negotiated the transfer directly with Roc Nation agency, was completely unaware of the existence of this prior legal dispute.

An uncertain future in FIFA’s hands

The case is already under FIFA’s jurisdiction following Gradel’s formal complaint. In the coming days, the international body will have to decide whether to grant a provisional license to validate the deal, delay the player’s arrival, or definitively halt the signing.
