In search of a central defender this winter, Paris Saint-Germain has reactivated the Leny Yoro track.
PSG is not finished with its winter shopping. After completing the arrival of Lucas Beraldo, the capital club is still looking to strengthen in midfield and in defense. For this last position, the Parisian decision-makers notably checked the name of the young 18-year-old Lille defender, Leny Yoro. But the file looks too expensive to be finalized this winter…
According to information from RMC Sport, the residents of the Parc des Princes recently returned to the charge for Leny Yoro, but came up against the intransigence of the Losc leaders. However, the French champions, who have 20 million euros to secure the services of a central defender this winter, were ready to break the bank and offer a higher amount.

Le Losc closes the door
Yes, but now, the Mastiffs do not intend to part with their French international hopeful during the season and would have closed the door to negotiations. However, this is not enough to discourage Luis Campos and his teams, who should return to the attack next summer, while the player would not wish to extend his lease in the north of France.
However, the competition will be tough for the Parisians, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Bayern Munich would also be in the running. As a reminder, Leny Yoro is linked to Losc until June 2025.
