Leicester City have almost resigned themselves to the fact that Youri Tielemans will take on a new challenge next season. Only the next station has not yet been determined. Manchester United and Liverpool FC are also said to be among the applicants.


Youri Tielemans has attracted the attention of almost every top club in the Premier League with his excellent performances. The Mirror names Manchester United as interested parties, in Spain reports are made about Liverpool FC and Manchester City as potential buyers.

United are said to be obsessed with signing Leicester City’s rising star. The English record champions were already interested in Tielemans in the summer of the previous year, but then preferred to rely on Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo, who together cost 100 million euros.

Tielemans has so far turned down all offers to extend his contract, which expires in 2023. “Youri is at an age and at a stage in his contract where he needs to make sure he considers every option,” Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers said during a media round. “I would love to see him stay here at Leicester but I understand a career is very short.”

Tielemans can choose his next club. In addition to the three clubs mentioned above, Chelsea FC, FC Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are also said to be making advances for the 24-year-old Belgian.
