Here we go, Liverpool closing in on dream transfer

Liverpool are now edging closer to a dream transfer.

The Reds' attack has become far too predictable.

For all the control and structure they have in possession, there is a glaring lack of players who can consistently beat defenders in one vs one situations.

In modern football, especially against deep defensive blocks, individual dribbling quality is often the difference between domination and stagnation. Right now, Liverpool simply do not have enough of that profile in the squad.

For years, Luis Diaz gave Liverpool chaos in the best possible way. He could receive the ball wide, isolate a full-back, and create danger without needing perfect patterns around him.

Even when the system struggled, Diaz could manufacture moments through aggression, acceleration, and unpredictability. That quality forced defenders to panic and opened space for everyone else. Liverpool are missing that badly now.

The only player in the squad who naturally looks like a genuine one vs one specialist is Rio Ngumoha, but expecting a teenager to carry that responsibility would be unrealistic.

The senior forwards are effective in different ways, but none consistently destabilise defences through pure dribbling ability.

That is why Liverpool’s dream signing should be a winger who thrives in isolation situations. Someone fearless, explosive, and capable of creating separation against set defences. Not just a runner in transition, but a player who can unlock games when opponents sit compactly around the box.

Liverpool’s attack needs unpredictability again. They need a forward who can turn structure into chaos, force defenders backwards, and restore the sense that something dangerous can happen every time they receive the ball wide.

And who better to sign in that position right now than Yan Diomande?

He is Liverpool's dream transfer right now. He's dad is a Liverpool fan. He's been excellent for RB Leipzig this season and he just brings that speed and one vs one ability that Liverpool are so desperately lacking right now.

On paper there's no one like Diomande on the market, who can play as comfortably on both flanks and be as effective as he is in both roles.

Liverpool are trying to wrap up his signature and RB Leipzig are reluctant to lose him, or at least they have been.

However, it looks like they are now accelerating a move to bring in his replacement which has Liverpool moving one step closer to getting their man.

According to Sportsbladet in Sweden, RB Leipzig are flying out to watch Zadok Yohanna in action for AIK this weekend as they look to accelerate a move for the Nigerian right-winger.

Yohanna has eight goal contributions in 11 games, and it's understood that Leipzig view him as their replacement for Diomande.

The report goes on to claim that Leipzig are not just there to watch him, the club's officials will also hold talks about signing the youngster.

Given the speed at which Leipzig are seemingly moving for Yohanna, it looks like they are now seriously preparing for life without Diomande and that can only mean one thing - Liverpool are edging closer and closer to getting their man.
