Nacho Fernandez’s future has been the discussion at Real Madrid for the past couple of months as his contract with Los Blancos expires this summer. The Real Madrid captain could be leaving the Spanish club, and rumors suggested that he was open to making a move to the MLS. He was set to join Inter Miami with Lionel Messi, but now he has turned his attention to Saudi Arabia, where Cristiano Ronaldo is. He would not be playing with Ronaldo at Al Nassr as Al Ittihad are in advanced talks to sign Nacho as a free agent from Real Madrid. The club has expected Nacho to leave this summer, and they already plan on signing his replacement, which is the young center-back from Lille, Leny Yoro. The French defender is open to joining Real Madrid this summer, but there are other clubs interested in him, like PSG and Liverpool. Yoro has reportedly been waiting for Real Madrid to propose a deal with Lille so he could join Los Blancos next season.

Fabrizio Romano reported that Leny Yoro is waiting for Real Madrid; he is giving total priority to Real Madrid. The Frenchman will be ready to consider other proposals if Real Madrid can’t make a deal happen. Relevo reports that people who attended the Real Madrid official lunch last night have left saying: “Leny Yoro is coming.”

The deal could heavily depend on Nacho’s departure from the club. Romano reported that Nacho has still not agreed terms with Al Ittihad after a two-year contract proposal — not a done deal yet. Real Madrid is also still waiting for his formal, final communication on the decision about his future. The deal depends on Nacho now.
