While PSG intends to strengthen after the departure of Kylian Mbappé, one of the capital club’s priority targets could go elsewhere.
At least Paris Saint-Germain is fixed. With Kylian Mbappé’s announcement of his departure at the end of the season, the capital club can already plan for its summer recruitment, taking into account the savings made with the Bondynois’ salary.
PSG intends to offer themselves an international-class striker, of course, to directly replace Mbappé. But the Parisian leaders also want to strengthen themselves in midfield, while adding a leading defender to their squad. For this last position, it is the profile of Leny Yoro which is targeted. The young Losc defender (18 years old) is one of the most promising players in Europe in his position, and PSG intends to get their hands on him.
Yoro rather at Real Madrid?
The problem is that PSG is far from being alone on this issue. Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Bayern Munich have their eye on Yoro, but PSG’s main competition is expected to be Real Madrid.
A few days ago, Relevo indicated that Yoro was Real Madrid’s priority for next season, as far as central defense is concerned. On Friday, AS journalist based in France, Andrès Onrubia Ramos, confided that the Spanish club would be given preference over Lille in the event of Yoro’s departure, so as not to reinforce another French club. This would be very bad news for PSG.
