Real Madrid has been considering advancing the incorporation of a central defender to the first team by a year for several weeks now. Initially, the plan pointed to the end of the 2024/25 season when this move should be made. Injuries, the logical uncertainties about recoveries, and the end of Nacho’s contract, who has been offered to continue without a response, have led Real Madrid’s executives to begin the search for that centre-back who could be the chosen one.LENY YORO IS A SPECIAL PLAYER 💎💫 pic.twitter.com/pxLKr0avcz— Ligue 1 English (@Ligue1_ENG) January 22, 2024 The first on the list is Leny Yoro, LOSC Lille’s 18-year-old revelation. The sports management has already made some approaches for the boy with Ivorian roots, but for the moment, the price set by Les Dogues for the promising centre-back, which is more than $60 million, is a stumbling block.The last-gasp draw achieved by Atletico Madrid at the Bernabeu has awakened the critical side of many regarding what happened in the Derby Madrileno. The knee injuries suffered by Militao and Alaba prompted Los Blancos’ officials to consider recruiting new faces. The White Club simply can’t allow to concede such goals just because there aren’t enough fit defenders.##NAJAVA_MECA_7845574##Of course, many players were offered, but the Real Madrid sports management preferred to invest in the long term, that is, to continue with the policy of signing young talents. This line perfectly fits the LOSC Lille youngster, also sought by PSG in January. Yoro is a player with plenty of room for improvement and the ability to play at a right-back if called upon. He already has 32 matches in Ligue 1 and is already a regular starter at Lille. A key player for the U21 national team, he has not yet appeared in the senior team led by Didier Deschamps. In France, they point out that he could leap at any moment.Remember the name! Leny Yoro turns 18 today, but he’s been turning heads of big clubs for quite a whileReal Madrid, for the moment, remains cautious and waiting. Scout reports are more than satisfactory, but for now, Lille is not being reasonable with Jorge Mendes’ protege. This agent hasn’t been very open for cooperation with Florentino Perez lately.
