Manchester United Set to Secure Lille's Rising Star Leny Yoro in £52 Million Deal

Posted : 18 July 2024

Manchester United is poised to secure the services of Lille's highly touted teenage defender Leny Yoro in a significant £52 million deal, according to reports circulating on Wednesday. The 18-year-old, previously linked with Real Madrid, is said to have flown to England for a medical with the Premier League club, indicating advanced stages of the transfer negotiations.

 

Reports suggest that Manchester United will pay an initial fee of £52.7 million for Yoro, with additional add-ons potentially amounting to £6.7 million based on performance metrics. Known for his early debut at Lille at just 16 years old, Yoro has earned acclaim as one of Europe's most promising young talents.

 

This move would mark Manchester United's second signing of the summer transfer window, following the recent acquisition of Dutch striker Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna. Manager Erik ten Hag has been particularly focused on bolstering his defensive lineup following Raphael Varane's departure and Harry Maguire's injury concerns.

 

In their pursuit of defensive reinforcement, Ten Hag and Manchester United have targeted high-profile defenders like Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich, and despite reported failed bids for Everton's Jarrad Branthwaite, the club remains determined to strengthen its backline ahead of the new season.
