Man Utd have submitted an offer to sign Leny Yoro from Lille but will they win the race to secure his signature?
As per today’s version of AS, there are two determining factors of this transfer saga, the transfer price and the will of the player.
The Ligue 1 side want to get the maximum fee from the sale of the 18-year-old defender, whose preference is to move to Real Madrid.
As per the Madrid based news source, Yoro has received offers from Man Utd, Liverpool and French giants, Paris Saint-Germain.
His response to all the suitors is that he wants to play at the Bernabeu.
The dilemma for the Los Blancos is the high asking fee. Lille have slapped a price tag of £59.2million (70 million euros).
For Real Madrid, the maximum limit is 40 million euros and they even have the intention of lowering the amount to around 30-35 million euros.
It will be fair to say that the £59.2million demanded by Lille is an exorbitant price for a teenager, whose contract will expire in an year.
The Les Dogues cannot afford to lose a multi-million pound asset for free after twelve months, so, they may have to give in to Yoro’s demands and let him join Madrid for a discount.
We shall see how the transfer saga unfolds and will keep you updated.
