The deal is understood to be worth aro𝐮nd €120 million, including bonuses.
Several media reports reported that a principle agreement was reached in the afternoon between Real and Leipzig, before the two sides finalized the transfer later in the evening, according to Fabrizio Rom𝐚no.
Diomandé has agreed a five-year deal with Real Madrid, keeping him at the club until June 2031. He is expect𝐞d to travel to Madrid next week for his medical and to complete the move.
PSG, meanwhile, chose not to enter a bi𝐝ding war with Real Madrid, believing Leipzig’s demands were too high.
