Leny Yoro is a dream target for Manchester United this summer

Manchester United are keen to sign LOSC Lille defender Leny Yoro this summer.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the player is also on the radar of Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool. The Italian journalist revealed to Give Me Sport that the 18-year-old French defender is a “dream target” for Manchester United this summer.

It will be interesting to see if the Red Devils can come to an agreement. Romano adds that the defender is eyeing a move to Real Madrid and the Spanish giants will be his priority should they come calling.

He said: “Leny Yoro is a dream target for Manchester United, as are Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool.

“All three clubs are still there trying to understand if something happens between Real Madrid and Lille, but the reality is that the player is waiting for Real Madrid.

“The player gives full priority to Real Madrid. He wants to go to Real Madrid, so they remain the big favorites in this story. The only way other clubs can come in is if the deal falls through between Real Madrid and Lille.”

Yoro has established himself as one of the best young defenders in Ligue 1 and could be a key player for Manchester United. He could be the ideal replacement for Raphael Varane, who left the club earlier this summer. It would help the Red Devils stay organized at the back.
