Leny Yoro Reacts To Man Utd Rumoured Links Amid Agent Visit To Old Trafford

Man Utd have already made the signing of Sporting Lisbon centre-back Goncalo Inacio and Leny Yoro a priority ahead of the summer transfer window, according to reports.

The Red Devils are looking to increase their transfer budget this summer through player sale and inject the money recouped into the club’s transfer budget. The likes of Casemiro, Jadon Sancho and Mason Greenwood all reportedly up for sale.

Manchester United transfer plans

Bringing in at least one new centre-back has become a priority for the Red Devils with transfer expert Fabrizio Romano revealing on Tuesday that Inacio, Jean-Clair Todibo, Jarrad Branthwaite and Gleison Bremer were four of their top targets.

Fabrizio Romano said: “United are also working on a right footed centre-back as a priority this summer – Jean-Clair Todibo, Jarrad Branthwaite and Gleison Bremer are on the list, but they also want one more centre-back – a left footed one. It’s not decided yet but it’s a possibility they are considering internally, and one player they have been scouting is Goncalo Inacio from Sporting Lisbon.

“Inacio is being scouted and monitored by United, but also by Liverpool, and he has a €60m release clause in his contract with Sporting. These clubs are showing an interest in Inacio, so let’s see if they decide to start a proper negotiation. This could be an interesting situation to follow as many clubs around Europe are looking for left footed centre-backs.

Yoro’s agent visit Old Trafford

Lille defender Leny Yoro could also be heading to Old Trafford this summer with reports in Spain claiming that Man Utd have ‘appeared with a lot of money’ to take the young centre-back off their hands.

A source revealed that there was agents present at Carrington today, and a couple of taxis were waiting outside. Gestifute agency branding visible on some of their belongings. Gestifute look after Yoro, Neves, Ait Nouri among others.

A potential deal is lying in wait with Man Utd view on Yoro as Varane permanent replacement.
