French Defender Leny Yoro Joins Manchester United

News 18  

Manchester United have signed 18-year-old French defender Leny Yoro from Lille on a five-year contract, the Premier League club announced on Thursday, as they bid to shore up their defence. “Leny is one of the most exciting young defenders in world football; he possesses every attribute needed to develop into a top-class centre-back,” United sporting director Dan Ashworth said in a statement. “Having had such an excellent start to his career we are excited to support him in reaching his immense potential here at Manchester United.” The teenager is the Old Trafford club’s second major acquisition after Netherlands striker Joshua Zirkzee joined for 42.5 million euros on Sunday. “Signing for a club with the stature and ambition of Manchester United so early in my career is an incredible honour,” Yoro said in a statement.
