Real Madrid eyes young French defender Leny Yoro from Lille
Spanish club Real Madrid is planning to strengthen their defensive line in the future, and they are currently seriously considering the possibility of signing young French defender Leny Yoro from Lille. According to Marca, the 18-year-old footballer has successfully made a name for himself this season and has become a part of his team’s starting lineup.
A potential asset for Real Madrid
The Real Madrid management is confident that Yoro could be an important asset to bolster their defense. The talented defender does not plan to extend his contract with Lille, which expires in June 2025, giving him the opportunity to become a free agent in the summer transfer market.
Impressive performance and market value
Last season, Yoro impressed with his performance, playing in 36 matches and scoring three goals. His value is estimated at 40 million euros, according to Transfermarkt.
Kylian Mbappe also joins Real Madrid
In addition, it was previously announced that PSG’s Kylian Mbappe has signed a five-year contract with Real Madrid. The deal includes a signing bonus of 50 million euros for the transfer of the French striker as a free agent.
