€100 million bid rejected! The price tag Real must pay for Diomande revealed
Real Madrid are intensifying their pursuit of RB Leipzig winger Jan Diomande. Despite the German club turning down their initial offer, Los Blancos are not backing down and are preparing for a new round of negotiations.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Real tabled a bid of €90 million in guaranteed fees plus an additional €10 million in bonuses for the 19-year-old Ivorian. However, the Red Bulls’ management deemed the offer insufficient and rejected it.
Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing. Previous reports indicated that the German side are holding out for around €120 million for one of their key players, and both parties are now working towards reaching that figure.

A crucial factor for Los Blancos is that Diomande himself has already agreed on personal terms. Romano reports that the player has accepted Real Madrid’s offer and is ready to sign a contract running until the summer of 2031.
