The Times: Aston Villa wantaway now being discussed by Man Utd chiefs as they make plans to ‘strengthen’

He featured last night but was unable to have a notable impact during Villa’s first-leg Europa League semi-final away to Nottingham Forest.

However, he has overseen a stellar campaign thus far, having returned 12 goals and nine assists in 50 appearances across all competitions.

Diomande, 19, has notched 13 goals and nine assists in 33 appearances across the Bundesliga and the DFB Cup.

RB Leipzig will do their utmost to keep hold of the coveted teenager, especially given they’ve only had him in the ranks since last July, but they would reportedly consider facilitating his exit if they can secure a lucrative transfer fee in return.
