After sealing a five-year contract, Yoro said: “Signing for a club with the stature and ambition of Manchester United so early in my career is an incredible honour.

“Since my first conversations with the club, they set out a clear plan for how I can develop in Manchester as part of this exciting project, and showed a lot of care for me and my family.

“I know about the history of young players at Manchester United and feel it can be the perfect place to reach my potential and achieve my ambitions, together with my new team-mates. I cannot wait to get started.”

18 year-old Leny Yoro is set to take the number 15 shirt at Manchester United according to reports… The same number legendary defender Nemanja Vidic wore for 8 years at the club. It’s the same shirt number he’s worn for the past 2 seasons at Lille too

Following the £36.5 million arrival of Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna, Yoro is United’s second acquisition under Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

After making his first team debut the previous year, he played in 32 games for Lille in the previous season.

Major European clubs are interested in the France Under-21 international.

Both Real Madrid and Liverpool were believed to have held a strong interest.

“Having had such an excellent start to his career we are excited to support him in reaching his immense potential here at Manchester United.

If United can get the money by selling some marginal players, they should be looking to add another center-back to their roster.

Erik ten Hag, the manager, continues to place a high premium on central midfield as he strives to fortify his team’s core.
