The endgame is rapidly approaching in Liverpool’s pursuit of RB Leipzig winger, Yan Diomande.
The Reds have reportedly gone all out to secure the 19-year-old Ivory Coast international as the successor to Mohamed Salah on the right wing.
However, Leipzig have placed a strict 13-day deadline on Liverpool to finalise the £87million deal, wanting the transfer resolved before the European summer rush fully takes over.
Richard Hughes is under intense pressure to deliver a marquee attacking signing to appease an anxious fanbase after such a dismal season.
Diomande’s blistering pace and technical profile perfectly match the high-intensity system Arne Slot wants to implement next season.
While Paris Saint-Germain remain lurking in the background with their own substantial financial packages, Anfield officials are working around the clock to iron out the structural details of the bid before the German club’s ultimatum expires.
