It seems like Manchester United beat Real Madrid in a player-signing race! French defensive prodigy, Leny Yoro is all set to travel to England to undergo a medical and finalise personal terms as Manchester United, reports claim. The 18-year-old Lille centre-back was a priority target for La Liga champions Real Madrid. The Los Blancos had assured Yoro of their interest in bringing him on board, demanding patience for the time being.
However, Manchester United have managed to convince the teenage defender to come to Old Trafford instead to join forces with Erik Ten Hag. Lille and United had reached an initial € 62 million (£52m; $67.9m) agreement last week for Yoro, the New York Times said in a report. If Yoro agrees to personal terms and accepts the offer, he will be in the Premier League by the season's beginning, the report added.
