Real Madrid has let go of a talented player who was seen as a possible replacement for Leny Yoro.

Fans of Manchester United know this all too well—the Cristiano Ronaldo story is still fresh in the minds of fans old enough to remember the terrible summers of 2008 and 2009. Real Madrid has a lot of fans all over the world.

A bid of around £42 million has been accepted by Lille for Leny Yoro by Manchester United. However, even the most optimistic Old Trafford fans would have to admit that a deal for probably Europe’s best teenage centre back is still not likely to go through.

It is no secret that Yoro wants to play for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid still has not made an offer that matches Man United’s, but Fabrizio Romano of X claims that the Red Devils have made an offer in the 50 million euro range. If Real do make an offer that matches United’s, Yoro will be on his way to the Spanish capital.

Leny Yoro is still likely to go to Real Madrid.

It is interesting that in May, Anton Meana of Cadena Ser said that Real Madrid was thinking about signing fellow kid Rafa Marin to stay after he did well on loan at Alaves.

A very expensive Lille centre back named Yoro was one choice, Meana said. “Madrid likes him but does not want to spend a lot of money on him.”

Real Madrid has told teams that have asked about Rafa Marin that he is staying, according to what we have been told.

“The veteran defender Nacho is leaving us.” On paper, Yoro should not have come.

After two months, Rafa Marin is finally leaving.

Real Madrid announced on their official Instagram account that Napoli has agreed to sign Marin. The winners of Serie A in 2023 are likely to pay around £10 million.

Is that the sound of the first die falling in Real Madrid’s chase of Yoro, who is 18 years old? The person who was meant to stay in Madrid and keep Carlo Ancelotti from getting Yoro is leaving after all.

That is not what Man United will want to happen.

Even though Matthijs de Ligt is going to arrive from Bayern Munich for a low price, United will jump at the chance to sign fellow right-footer Yoro if he wants to sign.

Man United is in the running.

United in Focus learned from Graeme Bailey, a transfer expert, that Erik ten Hag’s team is sure that Leny Yoro is one of the best players of his age. Anyone who wants to buy this player should, even if United does not need another right-footed centre back to go with De Ligt.

“I believe Real Madrid will choose Yoro.” On his Vibe with Five show, Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand says, “I would love him to come to Man United.” He compares the 6ft 4ins giant to Arsenal’s William Saliba.

“If you want Lenny Yoro, please accept and come to Manchester United.” Could Man United please make the offer and accept it? I believe this kid has as much potential as anyone else right now, even Saliba.

“He is not as strong or developed physically.” He is a different kind of centre back, though. He moves quickly and bites to get ahead. He can play and is long, tall, and active.
