For the past few weeks, the French media named Manchester United as one of the strong contenders for the signing of Leny Yoro from Lille.
The Red Devils were said to have ‘formalised’ talks for his signing, even though reports said only a ‘crazy’ offer would take him from his club this month.
Now as Foot Mercato shares an exclusive story on Yoro’s future, it seems there are some bad news for Manchester United’s pursuit.
With Paris Saint Germain now said to be in the race for the player as well, it’s now said that Jorge Mendes is pushing to make that transfer work.
It’s said the super agent knows how to make all parties happy, and will now work to find Lille a good replacement for Yoro.
The outlet writes there are green lights for this ‘major transfer’, and even if PSG can’t get it done this month, they should try again in the summer.
That’s basically a siren for Manchester United, who now seem close to losing the competition, unless they can make Mendes change his mind.
