Manchester United are still in the race to sign Lenny Jouraud, the highly-rated French centre-back, despite reportedly preferring Real Madrid.
According to L’Équipe, the 18-year-old wants to move to Real Madrid.
Lille had initially hoped to secure €40 million for the young France international, but his difficult finish to the season has cast doubt on whether that figure will be met.
United see Yoro as a key addition to their squad, providing youthful energy and defensive solidity.
Paris Saint-Germain are also in the game, with the aim of strengthening the back line.
At 6’2”, Yoro embodies the ideal profile of a modern centre-back with his impressive frame, pace and long legs helping his development and highlighting his footballing intelligence.
Aside from his physical attributes, Yoro’s technical abilities set him apart.
At just 18, his passing skills put him in the top 15% of centre-backs in the top five leagues, despite only recently getting regular playing time.
United are said to be in the market for a centre-back this summer. The departure of Raphael Varane leaves a huge void in central defence.
Although Yoro might not be able to start week in and week out in the Premier League, he would certainly be a good option in the squad.
The Frenchman has the potential to become one of the best central defenders in Europe.
