The transfer market highlights Real Madrid’s strategic pivot, with Yan Diomande emerging as a key target after the club shelved Michael Olise’s potential move. Despite Florentino Perez’s interest in Olise, Bayern Munich has confirmed the winger’s commitment to their side, stating he will play a critical role in the upcoming season.
Real Madrid’s decision to abandon Olise negotiations was communicated to Bayern, aiming to preserve their relationship. Christoph Freund, Bayern’s sporting director, reiterated that Olise is not for sale this window, emphasizing his importance to the German club.

Initially, Paris Saint-Germain secured Diomande’s personal terms in June, but Real Madrid has since intensified efforts with RB Leipzig. The Spanish giants are preparing a revised offer following Leipzig’s rejection of a €90 million-plus €10 million add-on proposal, aiming to finalize a deal for the French winger.
Real Madrid Nears Agreement with Yan Diomande
Verbal terms have been secured with Diomande, with Real Madrid now seeking his formal approval. The club is actively refining their offer to match Leipzig’s valuation while negotiating the final details of the transfer.
Manchester City’s involvement in Diomande’s transfer has concluded. The English club has not pursued the player for over a week, narrowing the race toReal Madrid and PSG. As Romano noted: “Diomande is no longer a matter for Manchester City. The focus is solely between Real Madrid and PSG.”
