New Balance yesterday officially announced the signing of 19-year-old RB Leipzig and Ivory Coast attacker Yan Diomande.
Diomande has quickly established himself as one of the most exciting young talents in the Bundesliga following his move from CD Leganes. He recently made headlines by becoming the second-youngest player in league history to score a hat-trick. The young Ivorian now joins New Balance's growing global roster of athletes.
Diomande Ends Search for Boot Supplier
The rising star began the 2025-2026 season without a boot sponsor, frequently being spotted wearing both Adidas and Puma boots during his early matches.
As part of the new partnership, Diomande will lace up in the New Balance Furon v8 football boots on the pitch.
