Real Madrid missed genius: How Yoro became the most handsome guy in Manchester United preseason
6:34pm, 5 August 2025Football
Real Madrid usually get what they want in the transfer market. However, this time, they watched their favorite target join Old Trafford. 19-year-old French central defender Yoro is one of the biggest "winners" in Manchester United's preseason this summer.
Player performance
Joro's every appearance in Stockholm, New Jersey, Chicago and Atlanta was impressive. Supporters are looking forward to what he can achieve in good health this season.
The French central defender was almost reimbursed for injury in his first season at Manchester United, but still impressed. Yoro has shown great potential during the team's overall tough season. Now he has fully integrated into the team and has once again delivered a precise long pass, which is exciting.
Last summer preseason, Yoro made his debut against the Rangers at Murrayfield Stadium in Scotland, and his several exquisite passes even triggered fans to tease him as a future Golden Globe winner. Although the metatarsal bones lost their feelings after being cured, their confidence has gradually recovered.
Transfer Insider
19-year-old Yoro already possesses the qualities of a top player, which also explains why Real Madrid has expressed strong interest before his transfer to Manchester United. However, Manchester United submitted a quotation of €62 million (£51.8 million) base fee plus €8 million (£6.6 million) additional terms, which Real Madrid did not match in the end.
Some people think it is foolish to pay huge fees when the contract is about to expire. But if you stand by, Real Madrid may sign him freely this summer. Manchester United believes that Yoro is worth investing, and this £51.8 million expenditure may be worth a lot in the future. The most anticipated trait of Yoro's preseason is his willingness to organize attacks from the backcourt, and his excellent passing vision is crucial to the team's advancement. This is what coach Amorim wants to see: "The coach asked me to do this, so I need to do it. I like playing like this, and if I can push the ball forward, I will do it. "
Before his ankle injury in May this year, Yoro performed well in the left center position. Most thought he would lock in that position, but Amorim moved him to the right this summer. Yoro served as the right center back in the United States, with equally steady performance in the U.S. match against West Ham United, Bournemouth and Everton.
For this reason, Yoro has shown high levels on both sides of the three central defenders system, which is worthy of praise. Having the ability to adapt to multiple positions is undoubtedly an important plus point in his growth. Real Madrid were eager to sign Ronaldo, but they were reluctant to pay a reasonable transfer fee for a player in the contract year, and this hesitation ultimately led them to miss a talented young central defender.
