Rising star follows Mbappe's lead, picks Real Madrid over PSG

Kylian Mbappe's impending departure from PSG and potential move to Real Madrid has sent shockwaves through the football world.

The French star has reportedly decided against renewing his contract with PSG, paving the way for a high-profile transfer to the Spanish giants.

As Mbappe's exit looms, Real Madrid is already looking to bolster their squad with fresh talent. According to reports from Sport (h/t Le10Sport), one player on their radar is Leny Yoro, currently plying his trade at Lille. Real Madrid sees Yoro as a promising prospect and is keen on securing his signature.

For PSG, the prospect of Yoro joining Real Madrid presents a significant setback. The Parisian club had earmarked Yoro as a potential successor to Mbappe, hoping to fill the void left by the departing star with the promising talent from Lille.

PSG's interest in Yoro is not new. The club had previously attempted to secure his services, indicating their belief in his abilities. With Mbappe's departure imminent, PSG had been preparing to make another bid for Yoro in the upcoming summer transfer window.

However, Real Madrid's interest in Yoro adds a new dimension to the transfer saga. The Spanish club's allure and competitive stature could sway the young player's decision, potentially dealing a double blow to PSG's transfer plans.

While some PSG fans may deny it, this would be the third case of a footballer preferring Real Madrid over PSG in recent years. We're talking about Eduardo Camavinga and Aurelien Tchouameni.

We could include Mbappe in the equation, but... Well, Kylian has preferred PSG over Real Madrid for quite a few years.
