LOSC could see Bafodé Diakité leave in the coming days. A key figure at the club since his arrival in 2022, the Guinean defender is being pursued by Bournemouth, with whom he has already reached an agreement on the terms of a five-year contract.

According to information from RMC Sport, LOSC is demanding €40 million to let their 24-year-old player go, who arrived from Toulouse for €3 million. Since then, Diakité has made significant progress, establishing himself as a reliable asset in Ligue 1 and even on the European stage. The Dogues are in a strong negotiating position, as the defender is still under contract until 2028.
