RB Leipzig brings Bakayoko and Diomande – mega transfers bagged!
RB Leipzig has big plans in the current transfer phase. The club has reached an agreement regarding the signing of Johan Bakayoko, as Sky Sports reported. The Belgian winger will leave PSV Eindhoven and according to information Football Transfers complete his medical check in Leipzig on Tuesday or Wednesday.
The transfer fee for Bakayoko is at least 18 million euros, which can be increased by a further 4 million euros through bonuses. He has been considered one of PSV's most outstanding players for the past few years, but suffered a disappointing performance last season, which significantly reduced his estimated market value. Before this agreement, there were apparently offers from renowned clubs such as Newcastle United and Manchester United, but they did not lead to the goal.
Bakayoko will sign a contract until 2030 and comes as PSV prepares for an important training camp in Germany. However, it was announced that Bakayoko would not be traveling with the team, abruptly ending his era in Eindhoven. PSV has already linked Ben Doak from Liverpool as a possible successor.
The coach and the new ambitions
Bakayoko's transfer is not alone. RB Leipzig is also in pole position for CD Leganes player Yan Diomande. Report here too Sky Sports and Football Transfers that an oral agreement has already been reached. Diomande will sign a contract until 2027 and will be signed regardless of Bakayoko's transfer.
RB Leipzig's ambitions are growing, especially considering the intense competition in the Bundesliga. A current overview of the transfer values of many players in the league now shows that RB Leipzig is very popular. Many talented and experienced players have established themselves in the Bundesliga, which makes the league even more attractive.
The signings of Bakayoko and Diomande could be a sign of a new era at RB Leipzig. Fans and experts are eagerly waiting to see how the two new additions will fit into the team. Leipzig could benefit from these transfers not only next year, but also in the long term. This new beginning could take the team further forward in the next few seasons.
