Fabrizio Romano has reported that Arsenal have made contact with the representatives of Yan Diomande to gauge his situation.
Clubs rarely pin all their hopes on a single transfer target. When one deal falls through, attention quickly turns to alternative options that could strengthen key areas of the squad. This adaptability is a hallmark of effective recruitment strategies during the summer window.
Versatile attacking players remain in high demand across Europe. Wingers and forwards who can contribute goals, creativity and dynamism give managers valuable tactical flexibility. Arsenal have been exploring several profiles this summer as they look to build on their recent successes.

Following the news that Morgan Rogers has chosen to join Chelsea, Arsenal are understood to be assessing their next steps. Fabrizio Romano has reported that the Gunners have made contact with the representatives of Yan Diomande to gauge his situation. The Ivory Coast international is a player who has attracted interest from several clubs.
RB Leipzig are currently in discussions with PSG regarding the winger, with personal terms reportedly agreed between Yan Diomande and the French club. Arsenal’s approach suggests they are keeping options open and monitoring developments closely. Any potential deal would depend on multiple factors, including Leipzig’s willingness to sell.
At the same time, Arsenal continue to keep tabs on Julian Alvarez. The Argentina striker has expressed a desire to leave Atletico Madrid, although the Spanish club have insisted he is not for sale. Reports suggest that if Atletico are forced to do business, they would prefer to negotiate with Arsenal rather than Barcelona due to existing tensions between the two La Liga sides.
