Alexander Hassenstein/Getty Images- Paris Saint-Germain are poised to make an opening bid for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, according to BILD. Liverpool have already had a €100 million offer turned down by the Bundesliga club, who are seeking well over €130 million for their star winger who is currently playing for Ivory Coast at the FIFA World Cup. Liverpool’s pursuit is complicated by PSG’s long-standing interest, who have been in contact with Diomande’s representatives over the past few weeks regarding personal terms. Leipzig, meanwhile, remain committed to keeping the 19-year-old at the club.
