Record transfer and seven-year contract - Jan Diomande lands in Madrid

The deal fell through - Real Madrid announced the most expensive signing in the club's history in a statement of just two sentences.

Yann Diomande has arrived in Madrid, the "royal club" announced and stated that the Ivory Coast international has signed a seven-year contract - according to which he should remain at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium until the summer of 2033.

Real thus definitively defeated the competition, although in the last 10-15 days it was clear that Diomande could hardly avoid the Spanish capital. Because, as usual, Florentino Perez gets what he wants...

There is still conflicting information regarding the compensation Leipzig received.

However, many are claiming that Diomande's arrival is a record when it comes to the biggest club in the world.

The "Blancos" will immediately pay the Germans 125 million euros, and through easily achievable bonuses at the end of the season, Leipzig should receive another 10.

There are some other clauses and bonuses in the contract, so the entire deal could cost Real over 140 million...
