Leny Yoro travels for Man Utd medical, Madrid virtually ruled out

Leny Yoro is ready to make a final decision on his future. The 18-year-old is being targeted by two top European clubs such as Real Madrid and Manchester United, among others. However, he is closer to continuing his career in the Premier League than in La Liga.

The French centre-back travelled to Manchester with his inner circle on Wednesday to undergo medical tests with the English club and possibly finalise the details of his new contract, according to 'The Athletic'.

The Lille player was not expected to join the Red Devils this summer as he was more convinced to join Kylian Mbappe's club. Nevertheless, the possible lack of a prominent role and the indifference of the Spanish side have caused Yoro to prefer a move to England.

Jim Ratcliffe's Manchester United were the first to make a move for the Frenchman and the Ligue 1 club accepted a reported offer of 62 million euros - 50 million euros fixed plus 12 million euros in add-ons.

Leny Yoro was left waiting for Real Madrid's offer but 'Los Blancos' preferred to sign him in 2025 as a free agent rather than sign him in this summer transfer window.
