PSG and Real Madrid Battle for Leny Yoro, Saudi Arabia Could Make or Break the Deal

Leny Yoro, the 18-year-old central defender from Lille, has attracted strong interest from PSG and Real Madrid, both engaged in negotiations for his transfer. However, Saudi Arabia could play a decisive role in the outcome.

Under contract with LOSC until 2025, Yoro finds himself at the center of a tug-of-war between the two prestigious clubs.

PSG has reportedly initiated concrete discussions with Lille, as per PSG Inside Actus. A meeting has been arranged to discuss transfer details, including fees and bonuses. Despite fierce competition, PSG shows determined efforts to bring Yoro to Paris.

Meanwhile, according to journalist Rudy Galetti, Yoro’s future could hinge on Al-Ittihad. The Saudi club might opt out of recruiting Nacho this season, altering Real Madrid’s defensive reinforcement plans and potentially leading them to not pursue Yoro this summer.

This situation could present an opportunity for PSG if Real Madrid also withdraws interest in the young Lille defender.
