Liverpool have informed RB Leipzig that they are prepared to meet the £86.8million (€100m) valuation they have placed on winger Yan Diomande. The Athletic claim that Liverpool is firmly in the driving seat to secure the forward's signature, although Paris Saint-Germain remain a potential rival for his services. While Diomande remains the principal target, it is said that alternative options are also being explored at Anfield just in case.
