Arsenal have made enquiries about RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande after losing the race for Morgan Rogers, but the Bundesliga club are demanding more than €100 million.

Arsenal have reportedly made enquiries about RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande after missing out on the signing of Morgan Rogers, who completed a British-record transfer to Chelsea earlier this summer.

According to reports from England, the Premier League champions are exploring whether a deal for the highly rated youngster could still be possible before the transfer window closes.

However, Arsenal face significant competition for the 19-year-old. Diomande is already in advanced talks with Paris Saint-Germain, while Liverpool are also believed to be monitoring the situation and could still attempt to hijack the move.

RB Leipzig are in a strong negotiating position and are reportedly demanding more than €100 million for the Ivory Coast international. The Bundesliga side are also prepared to keep the winger for another season if their valuation is not met.

Arsenal remain active in the market despite signing former Fortuna Düsseldorf and Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis. The Gunners are expected to strengthen further in attacking areas as they prepare to defend their Premier League title.

Diomande enjoyed an outstanding debut season with RB Leipzig after arriving from CD Leganés for just €20 million. He scored 12 goals across all competitions and also impressed with Côte d’Ivoire during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

While Arsenal’s interest is genuine, completing a deal will not be straightforward. With PSG currently leading the race, Liverpool still in contention and Leipzig under no pressure to sell, the Gunners may have to move quickly if they hope to secure one of Europe’s most exciting young attacking talents.
