Hungry for sport, he grew up to the sound of Formula 1 engines and the exploits of Ronaldinho. Today, with a Master’s degree in sports journalism, he no longer misses an F1 Grand Prix or a PSG match, his two passions and specialties.
In search of a central defender this summer, PSG seems to have made Leny Yoro its top priority for the transfer window. However, Real Madrid seems to have had a head start for several weeks, without the transfer being completed yet. Therefore, this seems to leave the door open for the Parisian club.
The summer promises to be hot for PSG, which wants to strengthen itself in different sectors of the game, particularly in central defense. With this in mind, the priority has been known for a long time since it involves Leny Yoro. One year from the end of his contract, the defender LOSC will leave and the competition Real Madrid looks tough for the PSG. However, according to Jonathan Johnsonthe Parisian club would begin to reverse the trend.
Leny Yoro will leave LOSC
« Leny Yoro is attracting interest from a number of big clubs at the moment. Liverpool are the latest to be linked, but there has obviously been long-standing interest from clubs like Real Madrid and PSG, while Manchester United have also been linked. There will be no new contract for him. It is obvious that he will look for another club. It’s obvious he’ll be looking for a significant pay rise from what he currently earns, but with the caliber of club he could choose, it’s understandable he earns more than he does in Lille », explains the journalist to Caught Offsidebefore continuing.
“PSG has gained a little ground”
« I would also say that wherever he goes, there is a good chance he will get a start. I think there’s a strong argument for staying in Ligue 1 a little longer, which obviously favors PSG, but he’s also very clearly a generational talent, just like Raphaël Varane was at a similar age, and he managed to make the jump to Real Madrid almost without problem, so Yoro could be confident that he could do something similar with the Premier League or elsewhere. However, I understand that PSG have gained some ground in trying to sign him, which is a turnaround, and it will be interesting to see what they can do to convince him that the Parc des Princes is the best choice », added Jonathan Johnson.
