French champions Paris Saint-Germain are determined to recruit Yan Diomande this summer but are prepared to stall negotiations. The club hierarchy believes a patient approach will force RB Leipzig to lower their original financial demands for the player.

The 19-year-old Ivory Coast international has become a priority target for the Ligue 1 giants after a standout season in Germany. According to reports from L'Equipe, PSG officials maintain regular contact with their German counterparts to monitor the situation.

RB Leipzig have reportedly slapped a massive 100 million euro price tag on the teenage forward to ward off suitors. However, the Parisian club considers this valuation excessive and is using tactical delays as a leverage tool to reduce the fee.

If finalized, Diomande would significantly bolster PSG's attacking depth and fit into their long-term strategy of recruiting elite young talent. The ongoing negotiations are expected to drag on as both clubs attempt to find a middle ground before the deadline.
