Liverpool are blowing PSG away from a financial standpoint in their efforts to sign Yan Diomande, with Fabrizio Romano revealing another advantage \u2013 not just financial \u2013 the Reds hold.<\/p>\n
Liverpool <\/a>have identified electric RB Leipzig and Ivory Coast winger, Yan Diomande<\/a>, as their perfect heir to Mohamed Salah.<\/p>\n Diomande may only be 19 years of age, but he\u2019s already regarded as one of world football\u2019s most effective wingers in one-v-one situations.<\/p>\n His expertise in those moments were there for all to see in Ivory Coast\u2019s World Cup opener against Ecuador. When squaring off against Arsenal\u2019s Piero Hincapie in the first half, Diomande ripped the Gunners ace to shreds.<\/p>\n The ultra-reliable David Ornstein previously revealed Liverpool had opened club-to-club talks with Leipzig<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Bundesliga side don\u2019t want to sell, but could begrudgingly cash in if bids in and around their \u20ac130m \/ \u00a3112m valuation are received.<\/p>\n PSG are providing stiff competition for Diomande, but reports earlier on Tuesday claimed it\u2019s the Reds who Diomande prefers to join<\/a>, with the wide man eager to play for Andoni Iraola.<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano previously stated Liverpool are putting \u2018important money\u2019 on the table <\/a>in their attempts to lure the teenager to Anfield.<\/p>\n The latest from the trusted reporter when speaking on his YouTube channel <\/a>has made further great reading for those wanting to see Diomande on Merseyside next season.<\/p>\n Liverpool hold two advantages over PSG for Yan Diomande transfer<\/p>\n Aside from Liverpool putting more money forward, PSG are also hamstrung by the fact they have no room for Diomande unless Bradley Barcola is sold, and the French giant aren\u2019t all that desperate to offload Barcola anyway.<\/p>\n \u201cThe battle is on between Liverpool and PSG,\u201d began Romano. \u201cBut the advantage for Liverpool is not just financial, because from my understand they\u2019re ready to offer more than PSG in terms of contract to the player, in order to attract him.<\/p>\n \u201cBut also PSG are still waiting to find the right solution with Bradley Barcola. They have to understand if there\u2019ll be the right proposal for Barcola, or whether they can keep him and continue with him.<\/p>\n MORE LIVERPOOL COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 \u201cThis depends on the value of the bids. So if the right bid arrives for Barcola, for PSG it could be easier to go for Diomande.<\/p>\n \u201cBut PSG are not desperate to sell Barcola. If there\u2019s the right proposal the situation could be different. But at the moment, Liverpool behind the scenes are pushing and are aware of PSG\u2019s interest.<\/p>\n \u201cPSG remain very keen on Diomande, but they\u2019re offering less, so let\u2019s see also in terms of numbers.\u201d<\/p>\n
