Real Madrid is emerging as the preferred destination for Leny Yoro, an 18-year-old defender from Lille. Despite interest from Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, and Manchester United, Yoro favors a move to Madrid. Negotiations between Real Madrid and Lille are progressing rapidly, and an agreement has reportedly been reached, dealing a blow to Liverpool's pursuit. Real Madrid views Yoro as a long-term solution for their defense, especially with Nacho Fernández's departure to Al Qadsiah. Nacho will leave Real Madrid after 23 years, having completed his medical examination and set to earn €10 million in Saudi Arabia. His move to Al Qadsiah will be officially announced on Monday and will be for a two-year contract.
Steps continue to be taken to formalise the signing of Nacho Fernández for Al Qadsiah. Sources involved in the deal say it will be for two years and that, due to the timing, it is not expected to be official until next week. — @MarioCortegana https://t.co/HbhdWDMDc2

The ideal situation for Real Madrid is that Leny Yoro decides to spend one more year at Lille and finish his contract to arrive as a free agent, just as Rüdiger and Alaba did. His signing this summer has become expensive. — @diarioas https://t.co/YXqAhWTCOs
