The impending summer transfer window is poised to ignite a fierce battle among the suitors vying for the coveted signature of Franco-Ivorian defender Leny Yoro.
While recent rumors may have simmered down, speculation surrounding Yoro’s future continues to swirl as top clubs vie for his services. Among the frontrunners are Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Manchester City, and Manchester United.
However, it appears that Lille is edging closer to sealing a deal with Real Madrid, emerging as the most probable destination for the talented youngster.
In a recent episode of the podcast “The Four Amigos,” journalist Mario Cortegana shed light on Real Madrid’s proactive stance in the pursuit of Yoro.
According to Cortegana, Real Madrid President Florentino Pérez is keen on finalizing a deal for the 18-year-old defender in the coming months, signaling the club’s eagerness to secure Yoro’s services sooner rather than later.
The urgency stems from the impending departure of Nacho and the long-term injury to David Alaba, prompting Real Madrid’s management to prioritize the acquisition of Yoro from Lille for the upcoming season.
Moreover, Yoro himself is reportedly enthusiastic about the prospect of joining Los Blancos at the earliest opportunity.
Amidst the intensifying competition for Yoro’s signature, Lille appears to be more amenable to negotiating with Real Madrid than with PSG, their fellow Ligue 1 competitor.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on the negotiations between Real Madrid and Lille as they seek to finalize what could potentially be a transformative move for the promising young talent.
