Revealed: Contract Details As Man Utd Submit Official Proposal To Leny Yoro
Manchester United have had a £42 million bid accepted by Lille for defender Leny Yoro, it has been claimed.
A report in The Sun suggested United are “closing in on a deal” to sign the teenager.
However, the France U21 international is said to be “more keen” on a move to UEFA Champions League winners Real Madrid.
The article reads: “According to Fabrizio Romano, the Ligue 1 club are urging the centre-half to accept Man Utd’s proposal.
“However, he remains more keen on a transfer to Real Madrid and is still waiting on the 15-time European champions.
“It is now up to Yoro to decide whether to join Erik ten Hag’s men or pass up the opportunity in the hope a Bernabeu transfer goes through.”
United are widely reported to want at least one new centre-back this summer as well as a defensive midfielder and a striker.
According to tier-one Journalist Fabrizio Romano; Manchester United have proposed Leny Yoro, after agreeing a deal with Lille. Yoro must now decide what he wants to do: wait for Real Madrid or sign for United immediately. United will not wait for a long time – Yoro must give the club his answer soon.
Matthijs de Ligt is also in talks over moving to Old Trafford with personal terms agreed, according to the Mirror, as negotiations continue with Bayern Munich over their £42m valuation.
Everton’s Jarrad Branthwaite is another option but the Toffees are reportedly ready to rebuff a second offer of £50m with a third improved from United expected soon.
