Hi Diddly Ho,
PSG have walked away from Diomande.
Diddly out.
21 Jul 2026 14:02:24
He's gonna end up stuck at RBL now unless his reps return to us and accept a sensible offer.
21 Jul 2026 14:02:30
Thanks for the info, neg.
21 Jul 2026 14:02:46
Oh, and thanks, Ned, glad to see you posting again, bud. ??
21 Jul 2026 14:09:17
Excellent, let's hope he and his team of useless agents all rot in mid table German mediocrity for years to come...
Perhaps harsh on the lad himself, but maybe this will be a kick up the bum for him and players like him to understand a valuable life lesson, surround yourself with a*reholes and you'll get nowhere.
21 Jul 2026 14:09:49
Graeme Bailey says we have a fresh approach to Diomande's reps.
Maybe it's back on now, PSG out of the picture?
21 Jul 2026 14:13:08
He will end up at Chelsea, you can see it now... cheers, Ned.
21 Jul 2026 14:13:31
Thanks for the info, Ned.
Will be interesting to see where he ends up, or stays!
Just thinking, like we have the signing videos when players join, could we start a trend to have 'walking away' videos in this sort of scenario?
A couple of geezers, one in a Liverpool trackie and one in a PSG one, both looking at Diomande, turning their backs and walking away, maybe into a sunset?
I reckon it'd catch on!
21 Jul 2026 14:13:41
Thanks. Do you think we will go back in for him?
21 Jul 2026 14:16:17
The guy said in a press conference that he is leaving Leipzig.
Now, I don't know how passionate Leipzig fans are about their club, but if that was a Liverpool player, then I'd be packing his bags for him no matter who he is. When you so publicly state your desire to leave a club, it's very hard to come back from.
It's for that reason that I just don't see him playing for Leipzig next season and all of this is just posturing from his reps, Leipzig, and the clubs interested in signing him.
They are all just playing the game.
This will come to a head and he will be playing somewhere else next season and at this point I don't particularly care where that is.
21 Jul 2026 14:22:26
Ned, who are we going to recruit?
The season is starting soon. I'm curious.
21 Jul 2026 14:33:14
Thanks, Ned.
21 Jul 2026 14:33:26
Rokki, we are not gonna sign anyone, buddy.
21 Jul 2026 14:37:51
Appreciate the update, Ned. Good to see you here. As always.
21 Jul 2026 14:39:43
This has to be one of the worst transfer sagas of all time. I don't know whether to feel sorry for the lad. He's been mismanaged like he has, or if he's got what he deserved for flip flopping and joining a bunch of sharks like Roc.
I like the look of Ferran Torress, but think that will be as hard to get right, and saw he had homesickness issues at City.
21 Jul 2026 14:45:36
Diomande isn't at Leipzig forever... sorry, I'll get my coat.
21 Jul 2026 14:55:38
Cheers Ned, his agents are doing a stellar job at mucking-up his career!
21 Jul 2026 14:56:37
Most probably end up at Arsenal tho... but fingers crossed he comes along with Barcola.
21 Jul 2026 15:00:45
Brilliant, thanks for the information, Ned. Personally, if it were up to me, I wouldn't go back in for him. Let him stay where he is, and maybe think about getting new agents.
21 Jul 2026 15:13:31
All lines up for a Chelsea move. But will he take a year out of Europe?
21 Jul 2026 15:30:28
Dotmars, Graeme Bailey works for Teamtalk, which, along with its sister site Football365, is a horrendously unreliable clickbait site concerned only with generating traffic.
21 Jul 2026 15:31:28
I see an article not sure which site, the other day saying about his agents and that it's going to CAS to sort it out. Apparently, Liverpool and Bayern Munich were speaking with his original agents and Roc Nation was dealing with PSG.
21 Jul 2026 15:33:20
Cheers, Ned. Glad you are still sharing!
This smells right up Chelsea's street now, doesn't it? I think they recently did a deal with RocNation too.
21 Jul 2026 15:37:28
I want Diomande to PSG to happen. Makes getting Barcola a lot easier.
21 Jul 2026 15:50:26
Surely the boy needs to rethink his choice of agent.
21 Jul 2026 16:00:55
Where would this leave us getting Barcola, I wonder? Would PSG even sell if they can't get Diomande?
21 Jul 2026 16:10:26
I'll throw money on the table and bet Chelsea comes in for him and gives Leipzig what they want. Club just has money coming out its arse.
21 Jul 2026 16:15:15
Thanks for the info, Ned. I feel sorry for a kid with so much potential being dragged down by a traveling circus. It's hard to blame him. He's only 19. How many of us were savvy decision makers not influenced by the people around us at that age? I know I wasn't.
21 Jul 2026 16:15:59
Cheers, Ned. Appreciated as always.
21 Jul 2026 14:20:21
Cheers Ned!
Is it true he's with 2 sets of agencies?
Also, I heard muttering of links with Ferran Torres (I really should stop looking at X!!)
I'm assuming these are just 'link us with anyone' types of mutterings, right?
21 Jul 2026 15:35:58
Silly boy has really shot himself in the foot here. He's been giving it stacks for months about Liverpool and PSG being his favourite teams and then out of nowhere it's Chelsea and Man City who he loves.
He's portrayed himself as a lying mercenary who will reel off whatever spiel his agents tell him to, in order to get a big paycheck. I hope he sacks his agency after all this and gets someone who actually cares about his career to manage his future.

Thanks neighbourino.
