Real Madrid has been chasing Lille's 18-year-old defender Leny Yoro for quite some time, but it seems that Los Blancos have capitulated in the race for the young talent.
David Ornstein reports that the French club have reached an agreement for Yoro to move to Manchester United. Lille have accepted the Red Devils' offer in the region of 62 million euros.
But, the player himself has not given a final word. He is now on his way to England to undergo a medical examination at Manchester United, as well as to agree personal terms of his stay at Old Trafford.
Recall that Yoro himself wanted to move to Real Madrid, but so far they have shown no signs of wanting to pay the price that Manchester United and Lille have agreed to.
This has led to the Ligue 1 team deciding to pursue a deal for Yoro specifically with the English club, as Lille would rather sell the player this summer than risk losing him as a free agent when his current contract expires in June 2025.
