Leny Yoro does not leave Mehdi Benatia indifferent. In an interview given to the Gazzetta dello Sport this Sunday, the future sports advisor of OM – who was present in the stands this Saturday during Strasbourg-Marseille – spoke about the 18-year-old from Lille. Asked to name a player he could recommend to the Turin management, the Moroccan did not hesitate to mention the name of the French international hopeful. “I heard about Hojbjerg. I played with him at Bayern, he would be perfect for Juventus: a great person, an excellent professional. But it seems difficult to me for Tottenham to sell him in January.indicated the former Turin defender, before continuing.
“Defenders? I have the impression that Juve follows Djaló, but in Lille I have a weakness for another player: Yoro, 18 years old. Performing well this season, the native of Saint-Maurice is also highly appreciated by his trainer Paulo Fonseca, who also praised his qualities this Saturday at a press conference: “It’s not normal to have an 18-year-old player like Leny (Yoro editor’s note), with this maturity and the technical qualities he has. For me, he will be one of the best central defenders in France and probably in Europe. He is very balanced, and there is no doubt that he will be a very great player.. Opinions abound in the same direction.
