LOSC Lille defender Leny Yoro will likely be on the move this summer if he decides not to extend his contract, which expires in 2025. As a result, Les Dogues will have to sell to avoid losing him as a free agent.

The 18-year-old has a couple of top clubs eyeing him, such as Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, and Real Madrid, who are keen on landing the teenage center-back. For PSG, securing Yoro’s services would mark a significant step in their rebuilding process after the potential exit of Kylian Mbappé, as they would have the top young French defender in their ranks.

However, if PSG are to secure Yoro, they will need to overcome a formidable challenge. Transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano reports that Real Madrid are the frontrunners in the race for Yoro, with the Spanish giants making a serious push to sign him.

PSG are also eager and will give their best effort, having shown interest in Yoro since last January. Meanwhile, Chelsea are keeping an eye on the situation, but there haven’t been any specific discussions yet.

As the summer months approach, the rumors will only continue to heat up, but eventually, Yoro and his camp must decide where to continue playing.
