- LISTEN to It's All Kicking Off! EUROS DAILY: Why Euro 2024 looks like a ‘tired tournament’
- Leny Yoro has been strongly linked with a move to Manchester United
- He has called out a 'fake account' for claiming he is not interested in the move
Manchester United target Leny Yoro has taken to social media to hit out at 'fake' transfer claims being made about him.
The 18-year-old Lille defender has been linked with a move away from France this summer, and United have been showing significant interest in him.
Reports from France claimed on Tuesday that Lille had accepted a £42m offer from the Red Devils, while Rio Ferdinand urged the youngster to choose United over Real Madrid, Liverpool and PSG.
However, an account on X impersonated Yoro and claimed he had no interest in moving to Old Trafford.
'I don’t want you @ManUtd. Leave me alone,' the post read from an account with the X handle 'Yoro Leny'.
