Youri Tielemans is a wanted man, the Leicester City midfielder is coming off of his best season to date in the Premier League and already featured in all 3 of the Foxes matches this season. How long Leicester City will keep Tielemans remains to be seen as reports have come out that the Belgium star is now on the radar of three of the biggest clubs in the world.

According to Fabrizio Romano, reports have indicated that Tielemans is becoming a target for many top clubs and while Leicester City would like to re-sign Tielemans to a long term deal the possibility that he stays much longer with the club is remote. Tielemans already has 1 goal in three outings this season as he looks to improve on his 6 goals in 38 games last season.

The 24-year-old Belgium international also has 4 goals in 44 caps for the national team and was Leicester City Player of the Season in 2020/2021. Here are the three European giants interested in Youri Tielemans.

Barcelona is in huge debt, that is for sure, but Youri Tielemans may be up their alley, he may not cost them as much as other big-name commodities and for Tielemans it could be his only shot at making it at a top club. It would be a very doable move for both.

Real Madrid wants everyone, Youri Tielemans has the talent to play at a big club, but the realistic chance he would be anything other than a role player at Madrid is remote. Tielemans can be effective elsewhere, he doesn’t need Real Madrid and Real Madrid doesn’t need him.

Familiar with the type of player Youri Tielemans is, Manchester United could be a nice home, he would have to earn his starting position, but he has done it all at Leicester City, why not take it up a level at Man U?
