Real Madrid target Lille rejects a €50 million deal from Premier League heavyweights.
Leny Yoro is a young youngster Real Madrid is also interested in signing, although Lille rejected down Liverpool’s €50 million offer for him, according to a recent Mundo Deportivo story.

Several prominent European teams have expressed interest in Yoro, who is only eighteen years old, during the summer transfer season. 

These teams are Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, and Manchester United, and they are all keen to sign the gifted Lille centre back. Real Madrid, who is also quite interested in Yoro, is their rival, though.

English sources claim Lille recently turned down Liverpool’s €50 million bid for the player. 

Although this sum is about what Lille has been requesting, they have imposed a price tag of €60 million and show no signs of backing down. 

Real Madrid is still in the lead in this race.
The biggest obstacle for teams hoping to sign Yoro is the widespread belief that he has already made up his mind to sign with Real Madrid.

Real Madrid is unwilling to pay Lille the €60 million asking price, thus they haven’t formally started negotiations despite this.

In the meantime, other clubs hoping to sign Yoro are relying on the chance that he might reconsider and choose a different team over Real Madrid. 

Liverpool in particular has been sceptical of their prospects of obtaining Yoro, primarily due to Real Madrid’s involvement.

Yoro desires Real Madrid. 

Yoro has been the subject of a lot of discussions lately, with many speculating that the player is aware of Real Madrid’s interest and is waiting for them to give his transfer first priority.

The primary issue, though, is still Lille’s demand, which Real Madrid is unwilling to meet because Yoro’s contract expires in the summer of 2025.

Given that Yoro has only one year left on his contract after this summer, Real Madrid are reluctant to enter a bidding war and pay more than they think is reasonable.

According to reports, Real Madrid isn’t willing to pay the player more than €30 million.
