Real Madrid to speed up talks for Leny Yoro after Nacho's departure

Having closed the signing of Kylian Mbappe, the top priority for the last few months, Real Madrid are moving on to the next players on their list. The departure of Nacho Fernandez makes it necessary to replace that place in the center of the defence and the 'Merengue' team want to take advantage of this opportunity to sign a player who has all the qualities to grow and be important in the medium-long term at the Santiago Bernabeu. 'Los Blancos' top priority for the defence is Leny Yoro. 'AS' advances some keys and part of the process that the Spanish team expects to fulfill.

The club believes that he has all the qualities to mark an era in the Spanish side and is working for his signing. They know that it will not be easy because the French club has always been very strong when it comes to negotiating, but they understand that it is possible to reach an agreement and that Lille can also see it as an opportunity to make money in the short term.

The French club set their negotiating price at 70 million euros. 'AS' reveals that PSG offered 60, so it has also raised its market price. The footballer prioritizes Real Madrid, which plays that trump card and would pay a maximum of 40 million. In addition, the intention is to do so in several installments.

Although the operation is complicated due to the economic amount and the difference between what Lille are asking for and what Real Madrid are willing to offer now, the club is working with the intention of signing him as soon as possible, always within their payment range, so that he can arrive on 15th July, the day set for the start of the group's pre-season training camp. It would be important because Ancelotti would not have many fullbacks available with the postponed holidays that players like Rudiger and Alaba will have. Also, gaining days of adaptation with an 18-year-old is always interesting in the long term.
