Manchester United’s £42 million bid for Lille’s Leny Yoro has reportedly been accepted, according to French sources. United are actively pursuing several center-back targets, including Jarrad Branthwaite and Matthijs de Ligt.
Despite United’s interest, Yoro is understood to prefer a move to Real Madrid, who are currently the frontrunners to sign the 18-year-old defender. Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool are also keen on securing the teenager’s signature.
Real Madrid has yet to match United’s offer of £42 million plus add-ons. There are speculations that Yoro might wait until June 2025, when he becomes a free agent, to join Los Blancos.
