Liverpool Eye Yan Diomande's Teammate as Alternative Target

The Reds are reportedly closing in on Diomande, but another player caught their eye. While Diomande has been touted as a world-class center-back, his teammate and fellow French defender, Issa Diop’s compatriot, 22-year-old Nuno Mendes is also being considered. The Portuguese left-back is already impressing for Monaco in the French Ligue 1. With his impressive skills on display, Mendes could potentially offer Liverpool a similar level of quality to what they would get from Diomande. Whether it be Mendes or Diomande, one thing’s for sure - this young French talent has caught the eye of Jürgen Klopp’s men.
