21-year-old with 13 G/A becomes smart Liverpool transfer alternative to overpriced Yan Diomande

"Liverpool are reportedly looking at Yan Diomande's RB Leipzig teammate Antonio Nusa as another transfer target in attack this summer. The Reds could be prepared to pay as much as 75m for Diomande, according to iNews, but Nusa is another name being considered. Given that Leipzig could ask for 85m or more for Diomande, it's surely sensible for Liverpool to have a cheaper alternative in mind, with Nusa also a fine player with potential to improve even further."

"Nusa has also attracted interest from Arsenal in the past, with our information at the time being that he could cost around 45m. That price has probably gone up a bit since then, but it's perhaps unlikely to have almost doubled, making him significantly cheaper than Diomande. Antonio Nusa could be a bargain transfer option for Liverpool Using Transfermarkt as an indicator, Nusa had a market value of 28m one year ago, and he's now up just slightly to 32m."

"Obviously in the real world clubs often charge a great deal higher than a player's true market value, but we could perhaps now estimate the 21-year-old's asking price to be in the 55-60m range. With seven goals and six assists in all competitions for club and country this season, that looks like it could be money well spent, without quite the same kind of risk as splashing out closer to 100m for Diomande, who has really only had one good season at the highest level."

"After such poor work in the transfer market last year, with vast sums spent on flops like Alexander Isak, Florian Wirtz, and Jeremie Frimpong, it's clear that LFC can't afford another reckless summer window.

Liverpool are reportedly considering RB Leipzig attacker Antonio Nusa as an additional summer target. Leipzig could demand up to 85m or more for Yan Diomande, so Liverpool may prefer a lower-cost option. Nusa previously drew interest from Arsenal and was estimated around 45m, with expectations that his price has risen but not nearly doubled. Transfermarkt values Nusa at about 32m after rising from 28m, suggesting an asking price in the 55–60m range. Nusa has produced seven goals and six assists across club and country this season, offering potential with less risk than paying close to 100m for Diomande.
