AS newspaper reported that Real Madrid is planning to finalize the transfer of Lenny Yoro to its ranks from Lille, within the next few days.
The Royal Club management is close to reaching an agreement with Lille regarding the deal, and it is assumed that the negotiations are in their final stages.
The Spanish club offered 35 million euros to Lille, in addition to some additions, bringing the final value to more than 40 million euros to acquire the 18-year-old.
According to the report, Real Madrid plans to announce the inclusion of Yoro next Monday, one day before the start of the preparation period for next season.
Carlo Ancelotti is looking forward to Yoro arriving early in the team so that he can adapt to the team, which seems to be happening if things go as expected.
At the same time, Manchester United entered full force into the deal, offering Lille 50 million euros to include the player, and the French club actually agreed to the contract.
The ball is now in Yoro’s court. Real Madrid is betting on the player’s position of refusing to move to any club other than the Royal Club.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Real Madrid will either settle the deal on its terms (40 million euros and add-ons) or will wait for the player to move to its ranks for free next summer.
