Real Madrid target Lenny Yoro has reportedly revealed his transfer preference amid interest from Manchester United.
WHAT HAPPENED?
With just one year remaining on his contract, Yoro is poised to leave Lille, sparking fierce competition among some of Europe’s top clubs. According to L’Equipe, while Yoro has expressed a preference for joining Real Madrid, United remain firmly in the hunt for his signature.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Known for his defensive prowess and maturity beyond his years, Yoro has become a target for teams looking to bolster their backline with young, promising talent. Initially, Lille had set a hefty price tag of €59 million (£50m/$64m) but it is now believed that the French outfit could settle for around €40 million (£34m/$43m).
DID YOU KNOW?
Real Madrid has a history of successfully integrating young talent into their squad, with recent examples being Vinicius Jr. and Rodrygo. This strategy aligns well with the potential acquisition of Yoro. The fact that Yoro attended the Champions League final has only fueled speculation about his future with Los Blancos
WHAT NEXT FOR YORO?
Although United have reportedly made an offer to Lille to close the deal swiftly, Yoro’s apparent preference for Madrid is a major stumbling block for the Red Devils. As negotiations progress, the fans of both clubs will keenly watch where the talented young defender will eventually land.
