Leipzig Signs Ivorian Winger Yan Diomande, Additional Arrivals Expected
RB Leipzig has secured the signing of 18-year-old Ivorian winger Yan Diomande from Spanish club Leganés on a contract running through June 2030, with the player expected to wear the number 49 jersey. Diomande impressed in La Liga with two goals and one assist in 10 appearances, debuting against Real Madrid, but could not prevent Leganés' relegation, prompting his move. Leipzig's sporting director Marcel Schäfer praised Diomande's speed, dribbling, athleticism, and team spirit, emphasizing that the club will allow him time to adapt and grow in their fast-paced, attacking style. Alongside Diomande, Leipzig is close to finalizing deals for Serbia's Andrija Maksimovic and Belgium's Johan Bakayoko. The club is undergoing a transition after missing European qualification last season and seeing the departure of longtime player Yussuf Poulsen, while preparing for the new Bundesliga season under coach Ole Werner. Diomande, who developed initially in the United States before moving to Spain, expressed enthusiasm about joining Leipzig, viewing it as an ideal environment to develop his talent.
