Manchester United are closing in on the signing of Lille defender Leny Yoro.
Sources say United have agreed a 62m-euro (£52.06m) fee for Yoro, who was due to fly to Manchester yesterday for a medical.
The 18-year-old has attracted significant interest from a number of top European clubs, with Real Madrid repeatedly mentioned as one of the sides keen to sign the player.
