Paris Saint-Germain continue to be linked to LOSC Lille defender Leny Yoro, who must decide on his future soon. The teenager’s contract expires in 2025, and he is drawing interest from Manchester United and Real Madrid.
This week, L’Equipe reported that Yoro isn’t keen on joining Manchester United. He’s more interested in PSG, but his main goal is to sign with Real Madrid. Additionally, it appears that Yoro’s agent, Jorge Mendes, is pushing for a move to Madrid.
People close to Yoro say he’s starting to worry about his future. While Yoro isn’t keen on moving to Old Trafford, new information shows that the player’s camp is open to a move to England.
According to Foot Mercato’s Santi Aouna, some members of Yoro’s entourage favor his joining Manchester United. His agent has initiated contractual negotiations with the Red Devils to complete the deal. As of now, Real Madrid has not made a new offer.

Transfer window expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Real Madrid are staying cool and collected about the Yoro situation despite Manchester United’s bid.
They know Yoro prefers to join them, so they plan to secure the deal this summer under their terms, keeping it under €60 million, or wait until June 2025 to sign him as a free agent.
