Liverpool is actively negotiating to sign Yan Diomande before Paris Saint-Germain this summer. The exit of Mohamed Salah has prompted Liverpool to push harder for the winger, with sources indicating the club considers him a top priority. PSG remains interested but faces a need to address the future of several players first. RB Leipzig, where Diomande currently plays, is reportedly seeking around £120 million, which poses a significant challenge for potential buyers. The urgency for Liverpool to secure a quality winger is heightened due to possible further departures on their right flank.
