According to reports in Spain, Man Utd have agreed £88.3million worth deals to beat Real Madrid to the signing of Leny Yoro.
The French starlet was heavily linked with the Los Blancos and wanted to move to Bernabeu but the Red Devils are set to complete a major coup.

As per today’s edition of AS (news image provided below), Man Utd have agreed mammoth deals with Lille and Yoro to beat off competition from the European and Spanish champions.
The deals agreed with all the parties are worth £88.3million.
The Madrid based news source reveal that the Old Trafford outfit have agreed a fee worth £50.5million – 60 million euros (50 million initial and 10 million in add-ons) – with the Ligue 1 side.
Moreover, as far as the personal terms of a contract are concerned, Man Utd have agreed a deal with Yoro that will make him earn 9 million euros a season, £37.8million in the next five years.
This means the 18-year-old, who has been earning a very low salary of under £6,000 a week with Lille, will now take home wages of around £145,000 a week, an enormous pay rise.
AS claim Yoro will receive figures ‘well above’ what he would have earned at Real Madrid.
It is stated that the teenager preferred to move to Spain but United knew the La Liga giants will not do ‘anything crazy’ to hire his services, something that the PL side have done to seal the signing.
In your view, have Man Utd overpaid in terms of fees and wages to sign Leny Yoro?
