Manchester United have reportedly had a bid accepted for Lille defender Leny Yoro, with an offer that has been described as far superior to what Real Madrid are currently offering.
The talented young Frenchman has shone in his time in Ligue 1 and it already seems clear that he has a big career ahead of him if he continues along this trajectory.
See below for the latest updates on the Yoro transfer saga as Man Utd are said to have had a bid accepted by Lille, with the €50m the Red Devils are ready to pay looking like a lot more than is currently on offer from Real Madrid…

As Romano notes, Yoro is a free agent next summer, so the 18-year-old doesn’t need to move now and can be patient if Lille don’t reach an agreement with Madrid, as they surely can’t force him to choose United instead.
