Paris Saint-Germain wants to continue adding young French talent after shifting their transfer policy. The capital club secured Bradley Barcola this past summer and wants another budding young star in Leny Yoro.

A recent report revealed that sporting advisor Luis Campos wants to pursue Lille OSC’s Yoro and Lucas Chevalier. Nonetheless, it’s the French defender that PSG might have to face competition for.

Football Transfers (h/t Fichajes) reports that Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid are vying for the young center-back. The Lille defender is under contract with the Ligue 1 side until 2025. However, with several top European clubs interested, his time there might end soon.

How much would Yoro cost? Transfermarkt puts his value at €18 million, but the price tag will only increase with all these clubs eyeing him.

Yoro is 18 years old but is already one of the defenders who wins the most duels in Ligue 1. Furthermore, the teenager is considered one of the best central defenders of his generation.
