Diomande matches Wirtz record: Bundesliga's priciest sale
Leipzig striker departs for Real Madrid in the Bundesliga's most expensive transfer ever, tying Wirtz's record fee.
Yan Diomande leaves the Bundesliga as RB Leipzig sell him to Real Madrid for what kicker reports as a €75 million base fee (excluding add-ons), matching Florian Wirtz as the most expensive player ever sold by the German league.
The Ivorian striker joins the elite group of talents to leave the Bundesliga for such a figure, sharing the top spot with Bayer Leverkusen's standout performer. The deal underscores the premium market value of top-tier German league prospects in European football's upper tier.
