Real Madrid: Yan Diomandé's transfer is imminent

At Real Madrid, the long-running saga surrounding Ivorian international forward Yan Diomandé is just about to reach its conclusion.

According to information from Marca, all signs indicate that Yan Diomandé is indeed set to join Real Madrid. The initial rumors broke last Friday, when Madrid's first offer was rejected. However, that bid served as the catalyst for talks that have since accelerated rapidly.

It has been clear for several days now that PSG is out of the race, and Real Madrid is the lone destination for the player. Further, according to the Spanish daily, several indicators suggest that the Ivorian international's transfer is now imminent.

Yan Diomandé is reported to have left his rental home and temporarily moved into a downtown hotel, while his entourage has been seen packing up his belongings in preparation for the move. Those close to him already consider his transfer to Real Madrid a done deal and aren't hiding their excitement, believing the Ivorian international "can dominate the Spanish league."
