Alongside the likes of Simon Adingra, Amad Diallo and Nicolas Pepe, Les Elephants have some excellent options out-wide and perhaps the star of the show for the Cote d’Ivoire is RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande. Having come through at an eventually relegated Leganes in the 2024/25 season, it was clear that Diomande was destined for more than La Liga 2 and RB Leipzig, with their often smart recruitment, went big on him and he has been excellent for them in the Bundesliga this season, helping them qualify for the UEFA Champions League. He will likely be the subject of big money interest in this summer’s transfer window.
