Leny Yoro is set to sign for Manchester United and become the club's second summer signing.
The Lille centre-back is viewed as a top-tier talent for the future and a player who can contribute immediately.
Leny Yoro played more minutes than any Lille player last season, playing like a seasoned professional at the age of just 18.
Yoro has been undergoing a medical at Manchester United, where he will follow Joshua Zirkzee by joining the Ineos revolution at Old Trafford.
While Real wanted to sign Yoro too, they did not fight hard enough and Yoro has decided to join Manchester United.
This is Manchester United's gain, as one of Yoro's more recently Instagram posts perfectly illustrates.

The defender captioned the image 'Just in time', showcasing his perfectly judged intervention.
Yoro has racked up useful minutes already While just a teenager who is even younger than Kobbie Mainoo, Leny Yoro has made 60 first team appearances for Lille already.
His Lille side finished in fourth last season, pipping Ineos-owned Nice to a Champions League spot.
HITC reported how Ineos used their knowledge of French football and contacts to gain an understanding of Yoro's situation, and how he could be willing to make the switch to Manchester United.
While widely reported that Leny Yoro wanted to sign with Real Madrid, United pursued the defender with the belief there was a chance of success, and this has proven correct.
