His first season at the top level did not go unnoticed. With LOSC, Leny Yoro quickly established himself as one of the best defenders in Ligue 1 when he was only 17 years old. Now an adult, the Dogue has not finished traumatizing the elite with his masterful performances in the northern rearguard. Author of 44 matches with Lille during the season that has just ended, the native of Saint-Maurice has been making headlines for several weeks.
Considered one of the greatest prospects of his generation, his future is inevitably up in the air as PSG and Real Madrid, as is often the case, are engaged in a fierce battle to get their hands on the talent of the 2005 generation. While the Parisians were ready to go all out to keep the player in Ligue 1, Real Madrid, having to deal with the financially impactful arrival of Kylian Mbappé, assured that they did not want to spend more than 40 million euros on the young prodigy from the north. But according to the latest information from the Spanish press, the player has made his choice. And it is not a question of money…
Leny Yoro’s cold refusal to PSG!

Aspiring to play at the highest entry level, the 18-year-old player would have even rebuffed his other suitors, including PSG. Inclined to approach the 60 million euros demanded by Lille for the defender, the capital club suffered a blunt refusal from the player who would have replied to Luis Campos: “Thank you but no.» A laconic response that offers a boulevard to Real Madrid.
