Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans could depart the King Power Stadium for as little as £25 million this summer, with Arsenal and Liverpool known to be sniffing around the 24-year-old.
Tielemans has been a mainstay in Brendan Rodgers’ midfield since his arrival from AS Monaco in 2019, for a fee reported to be around 40 million pounds. It was his strike that won Leicester City their first ever FA Cup, while he has racked up over 100 Premier League appearances for the Foxes.
However, Tielemans is down to the final year of his contract in the midlands, and has previously courted interest from Arsenal and Liverpool among other sides, with a massive price tag always touted.
This summer looks set to be different, though, with Leicester thought to only want around £25 million for their Belgian midfielder, something that will represent a major loss on their investment from a purely financial standpoint.
