Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Lille defender Leny Yoro.
Sources say United have agreed a 62m-euro (£52.06m) fee for Yoro, who was due to fly to Manchester yesterday for a medical.
The 18-year-old has attracted significant interest from a number of top European clubs, with Real Madrid repeatedly mentioned as one of the sides keen to sign the player.
Yoro, who made his Lille debut at the age of 16, was picked in Thierry Henry’s provisional France squad for the Olympic Games but was omitted from the final party due to Lille’s participation in the Champions League qualification rounds.
