Yan Diomande addresses transfer rumours amid Liverpool interest

RB Leipzig sensation Yan Diomande has addressed mounting speculation about his future as Liverpool step up their pursuit of the Ivorian starlet. The 19-year-old winger has become one of the most sought-after properties in world football after a breakout season in the Bundesliga and a series of dazzling World Cup performances.

Speaking after the Ivory Coast's 2-0 victory over Curacao, Diomande was asked where he will be playing next season but said his focus remains on the tournament. He replied: "That, I don't know. I am not thinking about my future after the World Cup. I am trying to focus all my energy on the World Cup and see what happens after – but I can't say anything about that." Liverpool face competition from Paris Saint-Germain, who are monitoring the situation closely, and the player has admitted a fondness for the Ligue 1 champions.

"I've loved PSG since I was little.
