Real Madrid unveil Yan Diomande as new signing on contract until 2033
Yan Diomande has officially been presented as a Real Madrid player, with the Ivorian forward signing a seven-season contract that will keep him at the club until 30 June 2033.
The teenager was welcomed at Ciudad Real Madrid by club president Florentino Perez before completing the formalities in the boardroom. His arrival marks the start of a long-term commitment to the Spanish giants, who have agreed terms with the player through the end of the 2032-33 season.
After putting pen to paper, Diomande was presented with several traditional symbols of his new club. They included a replica of Santiago Bernabeu, a watch and a Real Madrid shirt bearing his name and the number 25.
The presentation was also attended by Jose Martinez Pirri, the club’s honorary president. His presence added to the significance of the ceremony as Diomande began his career with one of the most decorated clubs in football.
Speaking to Real Madrid TV, the new forward made clear how strongly he felt the occasion. He was visibly moved while viewing the many trophies collected by the club throughout its history.
Diomande has also outlined ambitious targets for his time in Madrid. The Ivorian wants to win the Champions League in Real Madrid colours and has not ruled out achieving that goal during his first season with the club.
His immediate focus will be adapting to his new team as Real Madrid prepare to begin their Spanish league campaign. Their opening fixture is against Real Sociedad, with the match set to provide Diomande’s first opportunity to be involved in the club’s domestic season.
Odds published by betting company 1xbet list Real Madrid as the clear favourites for the game. The Madrid side is priced at 1.34 to win, while a draw is listed at 5.20 and a Real Sociedad victory at 7.00.
The scheduled meeting with Real Sociedad will therefore come shortly after Diomande’s official unveiling, as he begins life at Real Madrid with a contract running until 2033 and the stated ambition of winning European football’s biggest club competition.
