The reason why a Manchester United star chose to sign for the Red Devils over Real Madrid has been reportedly been revealed.

Apparently, Manchester United's biggest off-season signing chose the Red Devils over Real Madrid for a variety of reasons.

Leny Yoro, who entered the final year of his Lille contract this transfer window, was one of the hottest commodities on the market.

Several of Europe's biggest clubs began circling once it became clear the teenage sensation would not be extending his stay with Ligue 1.

One of the teams heavily linked with Yoro was Los Blancos, who were looking to replace their long-serving captain Nacho Fernandez.

The Spanish champions have signed a number of promising young French talent in recent seasons, including Eduardo Camavinga, Aurelien Tchouameni, and Kylian Mbappe.

However, the Saint-Maurice native decided to join Erik ten Hag's project at United and, according to Marca, it was because the record European champions only offered him €2.5 million (R49.4 million) per season, while the English giants offered him €9.5 million (R188 million) per season, almost quadrupling his earnings.

Unfortunately for United, Yoro is now nursing a broken foot and won't be available until November at the earliest for the Dutch tactician.
