'Leny Yoro is a treasure for MU'

Former football legend Rio Ferdinand couldn't hide his excitement when talking about young center-back Leny Yoro, who has become a rare bright spot in the Manchester United squad in the early stages of the 2025/26 season.

Yoro's progress is a bright spot amidst Manchester United's struggle to rediscover their former glory.

Speaking on his podcast , Ferdinand analyzed: "I love Leny Yoro. I don't know where Leny's limits are, but he has the potential to become a world- class centre-back. He just needs the pieces around him to support him, especially when he's young."

Yoro endured a challenging 2024/25 season at Manchester United but still left many positive impressions. In his second season, he established a solid place in the MU defense amidst the team's inconsistent performance.

Yoro started all three of the 2025/26 Premier League season and made a good impression. Based on his experience playing as a center-back, Ferdinand believes that Manchester United must build their defense around Yoro for many years to come.

"Yoro has all the core qualities to become a top-class center-back, and Leny will achieve that because he has the desire, the hard work, and the dedication to playing football," Ferdinand emphasized. "Currently, in my assessment, only Leny Yoro is an untouchable treasure in the Manchester United squad for the future. The club must build its playing style around that treasure."
