Liverpool are ready to make a massive statement in the transfer market by readying an £86 million (€100m) package for RB Leipzig starlet Yan Diomande. The Reds have identified the Ivory Coast international as a priority target following the departure of Mohamed Salah.
Ivory Coast international Yan Diomande has opened up about the profound emotional void left by the tragic death of his 15-year-old sister, Roxanne.

In a way, Diomande's dazzling display on his World Cup debut was a positive for Liverpool, as it illustrated precisely why they believe he could have a transformative effect on an attack that struggled so badly last season.
