The transfer saga surrounding Yan Diomande has one fewer participant. As Florian Plettenberg from 'Sky' reports, PSG confirmed in response to the broadcaster’s inquiry that they have withdrawn from the race for the Ivorian.

"The demanded transfer fee and salary expectations were completely disproportionate," the French capital club explained in justifying its decision. According to current media reports, Diomande is expected to join Real Madrid in the near future. While transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has already given his "here we go" on the move, Plettenberg writes that the deal is not yet finalized.

If the deal goes through, RB will receive a fee of more than €100 million.
