Real Madrid see Yoro as successor for departing veteran

Real Madrid are stepping up their interest in Lille defender Leny Yoro.

Tribalfootball.com's transfer expert Rudy Galetti is reporting Real Madrid are taking concrete steps in the battle for Yoro.

The Spanish giants see the Frenchman as the perfect replacement for Nacho Fernndez, 34, who looks set to leave in a Bosman transfer this summer.

Galetti also states that Lille are open to the sale of Yoro with the youngster's contract running to 2025.

Lille know they risk losing him for nothing if there is no deal in the coming window.
