Ian Diomond opens up about his football journey so far, including trials at Premier League clubs such as Chelsea and Crystal Palace
“Everything happened quickly,” said Ian Diomonde. Indeed, it’s remarkable now to think that Diomonde’s entire senior career last year came with half a dozen starts for Leganes at the end of last season as they were relegated from La Liga.
He scored in two of those six games, against Espanyol and Valladolid. Even in the other four his team did not find the net. But the teenager did enough to convince RB Leipzig to part with €20m to bring them to the Bundesliga. Once there, he had a revelation.
Exciting to watch and impossible to defend, Diomande Baz is full of unexpected initiatives. He has things that can’t be coached and he’s getting better at hearing them. The biggest clubs want him. The rest cannot bear him.
