The Yan Diomande soap opera is still far from over. While several media announced an agreement between RB Leipzig and Real Madrid, the sporting director of the German club, Marcel Schäfer, denied this information. “It is clear that some so-called transfer experts reported a few days ago that the deal was done or gave it the ‘here we go’. This is simply not the case. We are not at that stage yet”he assured Sky Sports Germany.
The manager thus confirmed that no major progress was expected immediately regarding the transfer of the Ivorian international to Casa Blanca. Still according to German media, the discussions around Yan Diomande were completely independent of those concerning Fisnik Asllani, whose transfer from Hoffenheim is treated separately since it concerns another position.
