Liverpool place Leipzig's Diomande as "top target" to replace Salah

RB Leipzig's breakout star Yan Diomande is now Liverpool FC’s “top target” to replace Mo Salah, per Sky Germany's latest update.

A potential transfer in summer has even been approved by all the key decision-makers in the Premier League club's hierarchy.

Concrete talks are ongoing with his new representatives at Roc Nation Sports, although no agreement has been reached yet.

Furthermore, Liverpool have not entered negotiations with the Saxony-based outfit who are currently third in the Bundesliga table. 

Leipzig are still keen to adjust his salary and extend his contract, which the pay-TV channel also confirmed back in late March. 

PSG, led by Luis Campos, are also in the race and have already held a meeting with the Ivorian winger's representatives.

So far this Bundesliga campaign, Diomande has provided 12 goals and 5 assists in 29 games for Ole Werner's side.
