Foot Mercato – PSG:
Despite the arrival of Lucas Beraldo in this winter transfer window, PSG is still interested in recruiting an additional central defender. Paris is strongly eyeing Leny Yoro, but the prodigy from LOSC is also being targeted by several top European clubs. While Lille is asking for €90M for their player, a compromise could be reached.
The defensive sector of PSG has been disrupted in recent weeks. Once again operated on his Achilles tendon, Presnel Kimpembe is unlikely to play again this season, as is Milan Skriniar, who recently suffered a serious ankle sprain. Therefore, PSG may be looking to recruit a new central defender in the coming weeks.
One name that has quickly caught Paris’ attention is the prodigy from LOSC, Leny Yoro. Sensational at the beginning of the season, the 18-year-old defender is on PSG’s radar, as well as Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Manchester United. As reported on December 31, Lille has demanded €90M from PSG to release their crack. However, the Lille club could sell Leny Yoro at a lower price in case of offers from foreign clubs.
Manchester United, very interested in the Lille defender, could have a strategy in mind to secure the services of Leny Yoro. According to journalist Jonthan Johnson, LOSC would be willing to sell their gem this winter, on the condition that he remains on loan at LOSC until the end of the season.
