See below for the reporter’s post as he claims Real Madrid are continuing negotiations for Yoro, with the talented young Frenchman also on the radar of Man Utd, who are doing their bit to try to enter into the conversation over his future this summer…

It remains to be seen if the Red Devils will be able to successfully hijack Real Madrid’s deal for Yoro, however, as Fabrizio Romano has noted that the player’s preference is to move to the Bernabeu.
Just earlier today, Romano mentioned the likes of United and Liverpool also trying their luck with Yoro, but he described Madrid as the player’s absolute priority, so something dramatic would have to change for MUFC to successfully convince him to change his mind…
