According to Jeetbuzz Login, rising star Leny Yoro has made a decisive move regarding his future with Lille, signaling his intention not to renew his contract with the French club. At just 18 years old, Yoro is already seen as a cornerstone of Lille’s defense and has drawn interest from some of Europe’s elite. His recent debut for France’s U23 national team in a friendly victory over Ivory Coast only solidified his status as one to watch. With the Paris Olympics on the horizon, Yoro is expected to represent his country on home soil.
Premier League giants Chelsea and Liverpool have been tracking Yoro throughout the season, but Real Madrid and Manchester United appear to be leading the chase. Encouragement for both clubs has grown following Yoro’s decision to let his current contract run out, which expires next summer. In turn, Lille may be forced to sell him during the upcoming transfer window to avoid losing him for free. As the saying goes, “make hay while the sun shines,” and Real Madrid seems poised to do just that.
Jeetbuzz Login reports that Real Madrid has intensified their pursuit, with Yoro’s agent, Jorge Mendes, in regular talks with the Spanish club regarding potential terms. While Manchester United remains in the picture, it’s believed that Yoro has his heart set on wearing the iconic white kit. Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is also reportedly convinced of the young defender’s exceptional talent and future potential.
Meanwhile, Chelsea has made it clear they do not intend to part ways with Benoît Badiashile this summer. The former AS Monaco defender had a rocky start following his move to the Premier League, but he remains under a long-term seven-and-a-half-year contract with the Blues. Injuries have limited the 23-year-old to just 13 appearances this season under Mauricio Pochettino, with only seven Premier League starts. Nevertheless, he was chosen to start alongside former Monaco teammate Axel Disasi in the recent home draw against Burnley—a match that left fans disappointed.
Badiashile has even filled in as a left-back during his time at Chelsea, although rumors previously linked him with a loan move to Lyon in search of more playing time. That transfer never materialized, but Italian powerhouse AC Milan is now reportedly monitoring his situation. Should his form fail to improve under Pochettino, a summer exit may be on the cards.
Still, British media reports suggest Chelsea has no intention of letting Badiashile go, and the French defender himself isn’t eager to leave the club either. Despite his injury setbacks, both parties seem committed to extending their relationship. Sources close to Jeetbuzz Login reveal that Badiashile remains satisfied with his early experience at Stamford Bridge, viewing it as the beginning of a long-term project.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Yoro’s next move. With Real Madrid now firmly in the driver’s seat, it seems only a matter of time before the teenage sensation takes his talents to the Santiago Bernabéu.
