Sporting turned down the opportunity to sign Diomande when he was offered to the club in the summer of 2025. Sporting declined to pay the 15 million fee requested at the time.

Diomande completed his move to Spanish giant Real Madrid with the endorsement of José Mourinho. The winger has already played 14 matches for the Ivory Coast national team.

Mais Sport reported that the player has now been officially signed by Real Madrid for 125 million following the previous rejection by Sporting.
