With Manchester seeking to improve its defense line, they have emerged as the top contender in the race to acquire Lille defender Leny Yoro. Ten Hag intends to enhance the team's defensive line in the upcoming season, which begins in August. The team struggled badly last season, and with a boost in the management, we hope to see some improvements. Manchester United has tried to make initial advances with transfers after signing Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna, who will improve the forward position for around £36.5 million. Manchester United are ready to spend more money on Lenny Yoro.
What next for Leny Yoro
Real Madrid had also expressed an interest and began conversations with Yoro. Yoro has shown a personal interest in joining Real Madrid, but it will depend on whether they can match Yoro's market value. Lille is offering Yoro for roughly €60 million, but Real Madrid is unwilling to pay more than €40 million. Chelsea is another team that has expressed interest but is likely to back out after signing Tosin Adarabioyo. PSG is additionally believed to be interested in signing the Lille defender. As of the latest news, Manchester United have signed Leny Yoro.
Incredible Talent
The younger, talented French player has impressed most teams with his performance, maturity, and focus on the football game. The 18-year-old French defender is an outstanding player with quick feet and top-notch ball control. He has been included in the French National squad that will play in the Olympics, and the coach, Thierry Henry, has commended his defensive skills. Yoro, born in 2005, is regarded as one of the most valuable players, with a market worth of €50 million, according to Transfermark. According to sources, Lille has accepted Manchester United's offer, and negotiations with Yoro is already completed, with Man Utd offering more than €50 million. He is currently doing medical at Manchester.
