Leny Yoro in demand as Man Utd and Liverpool join Real Madrid and PSG in pursuit of highly-rated Lille teenager

<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5556308/2024/06/13/leny-yoro-man-utd-liverpool-transfer/" target="_blank">The Athletic</a> reports the 18-year-old is one of the most 'coveted' players in Europe, with Liverpool, United, Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain keen on recruiting the centre-back. The 6ft 3in teenager, who played a key role in Lille having the joint third-best defensive record in Ligue 1 (34 goals conceded), is out of contract in 2025 and he is not expected to sign a new deal.

WHAT HAPPENED?

One major stumbling block, however, is that Lille reportedly have an asking price of €100 million (£84m/$107.m) - despite the France Under-21 international having just over 12 months left on his deal. The Athletic adds a move to Los Blancos is the most likely option, with the Spanish side seeing him as a 'generational talent'.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Lille president Oliver Letang confirmed on Wednesday that Yoro, as well as Canada striker Jonathan David, will be allowed to leave the club.Fabrizio Romano relayed his comments, which read: “Leny Yoro and Jonathan David can leave the club this summer. Both have the ‘exit voucher’ due to their contract situation."But it is unlikely Madrid will stump up £84m to recruit the youngster.

DID YOU KNOW?

Lilly academy product Yoro, whose representatives are understood to have met with Madrid, is likely to be the subject of a bidding war this summer. Where he goes remains to be seen.
