Leny Yoro, the 18-year-old central defender at Lille with a contract until 2025, will not be leaving the club, assures the Lille coach.
No Leny Yoro at PSG? Despite strong pressure from the Parisian club to recruit the Lille defender, he is unlikely to move after all. Lille’s coach, Paulo Fonseca, addressed the matter in a press conference on Saturday.
“The first thing we have to integrate is that he understands the situation. He knows he’s staying here. He’s young but very balanced. Honestly, I look at his behavior in training. He has the same attitudes as when he started the season. He’s the same player. It’s not easy when a young player starts attracting the interest of top clubs.
But he remains calm, focused on our team. This week, I had a great conversation with Leny. We talked about the situation. I told him what I think. And he understood that he has to stay here and only think about Lille.”
