Reports of an agreement between Real Madrid and RB Leipzig for the transfer of Jan Diomande to the Santiago Bernabéu are being confirmed, as the striker has departed for Madrid. Fabrizio Romano shared a photo of the player on a charter flight en route to the Spanish capital, accompanied by two of his agents.
In Madrid, Diomande is set to undergo medical tests before finalizing the blockbuster deal, which is valued at a fixed €125 million and could reach €140 million with add-ons.
Earlier this morning, the African forward trained individually at Leipzig's training camp in Austria. However, shortly after 11:00 AM local time, he left the team hotel and headed to the airport.
If all goes smoothly, Diomande could potentially join the squad for Real Madrid's friendly match against Ferencváros on Saturday.
