€100M+ bid was rejected, then a deal worth over €100M was completed (obviously, duh). I knew the “Here We Go” would follow the moment Fabrice Hawkins broke the news that PSG were out. Diomande will probably still join Madrid, but after reading all sides of the story, I highly doubt a deal has been agreed yet, as Fabrizio reported. Plettigoal was absolutely wrong for throwing shade. Just report your own version of the story like David Ornstein did, without taking needless shots at anyone. Fabrizio was also wrong to tell us what was discussed in the DMs. We didn’t ask, and it has nothing to do with the Diomande deal you’re both going back and forth over. In all of this, Leipzig are the biggest winners because is this guy even worth all this drama?

🚨⏳ And one more quick note on Yan Diomande saga, because more and more things in this business are becoming a bit ridiculous: If there had already been a full agreement between RB Leipzig and Real Madrid, it would be possible to report the exact transfer fee, wouldn’t it? The fact is: there still isn’t one. That continues to be confirmed by RB Leipzig, Real Madrid and the player’s camp. If a €100 million bid has been rejected, then it’s pretty obvious the final fee will be well over €100 million, isn’t it? Real Madrid are expected to get the deal over the line tomorrow or, at the latest, during the course of next week. Diomande wants to join Real Madrid and has a verbal agreement until 2031. Club-to-club negotiations will continue tomorrow. Diomande is also due to return to Leipzig tomorrow. 🇨🇮

Okay, wow. By accusing us of “fake news” with „Man City bidding“ (never reported) you’ve unfortunately crossed a line. I never wanted to bring this up, but your Klopp report was simply ridiculous and disrespectful to every journalist who actually does proper reporting. One day after the DFB had already named him in its official statement, you posted a “here we go”. Posting a signing soon and it’s almost one week later. I honestly thought you’d have the decency not to do that. Anyone could have posted that Klopp HWG because it was obvious he was going to become Germany’s head coach. Your report was based on probability, not on actual agreements. As long as you keep deleting false „here we go’s“ and posting results minutes before the final whistle just because of algorithms and the need to be first in the race against 433 and score apps, only to delete them five minutes later because Neymar scores, you should probably keep a lower sound overall. The same applies when you fail to credit the original source in a large share of your Instagram posts. Do your business. We’ll do ours. But accusing others of spreading lies is quite ironic coming from someone in your position. Good night.

don’t worry, Diomande goes to Real Madrid as Klopp went to Germany. Ask about the fake news yesterday on Man City bidding €100m for Diomande when they’ve been out for days, and when Madrid were already advancing. They are good at talking about others (not even that good, they can’t even tag me 🤣) but… check your own news first, then talk about me. 🤗

🚨 BREAKING: PSG value Bradley Barcola at €170m and are using the transfers of Morgan Rogers and Elliot Anderson as valuation yardsticks. The number factors in that Barcola is a back-to-back Champions League winner, had a strong World Cup and is only 23. Plus, multiple clubs have made enquiries. PSG are prepared to sell, though, and Liverpool will hope to get the price down. ⁠Luis Enrique has been clear that he only wants players committed to PSG, and that he won't guarantee anyone a starting spot.
