An insight into the considerable costs involved in La Liga giants Real Madrid’s imminent signing of Yan Diomandé has come to the fore online.
This comes amid the understanding that Los Blancos’ outlay could go well beyond the €100 mark.
Winger Diomandé is of course expected to be unveiled as the latest high-profile addition to the attacking ranks in Spain’s capital at any moment.
After positioning themselves alongside the likes of Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City in the race for the Ivorian, Real Madrid wasted little time in blowing their competition out of the water.
An accord with both Diomandé and RB Leipzig, in turn, was found over the weekend.
And as alluded to above, on Monday, a look at the finer details of the financial arrangement in place at club level has been provided. The info comes courtesy of ESPN, who have revealed:
‘A source told ESPN that Madrid were set to seal the teenager’s signing between Monday and Tuesday, for a deal expected to total €135 million including variables.’
