Real Madrid's most expensive new signing, Jan Diomande, has been officially unveiled as a club player, despite having already made his debut for Los Blancos over the weekend. The winger made his first official statements as a Madrid player during the ceremony, revealing his strong desire to wear the white jersey.
"I am proud to be here because this is the biggest club in the world. Everyone dreams of playing for Real Madrid, and I will give my all," the winger told the club's media.
Diomande, who arrived from RB Leipzig for a Bundesliga record fee and signed a contract until June 30, 2033, highlighted the role of coach Jose Mourinho, revealing how crucial his conviction was in wanting him at the club. The Portuguese personally called him at five in the morning while transfer negotiations were still ongoing.
"It's incredible that I will be coached by the best coach in the world and that I will share a locker room with the best players in the world. When you look at all these trophies, it makes you want to win another one. It's very exciting to compete in La Liga and the Champions League to win them — and why not this year?" Diomande explained.
