Liverpool is reportedly set to finalize a deal for Yan Diomande from RB Leipzig, potentially marking him as their last wide signing this summer. The club values Diomande at over £100 million, as they aim to secure him alongside Cody Gakpo, Rio Ngumoha, and Victor Munoz. While Liverpool aims for a strong rotation, concerns arise over the physical demands placed on younger players, particularly with Hugo Ekitike sidelined for much of next season. Analysts question whether this strategy sufficiently addresses squad depth as Liverpool prepares for the upcoming campaign.
