Leicester: Youri Tielemans reportedly makes decision about future
Leicester City’s star midfielder Youri Tielemans has now reportedly made a decision about his Foxes future, according to the latest speculation.

Oh, and the Blue Army are constantly hoping, desperately, that standout asset Youri Tielemans eventually extend his LCFC contract whilst simultaneously rejecting the advances from Liverpool among other apparently tracking clubs.
Prior to the Belgium man’s stunning winning goal versus Chelsea in the FA Cup Final, Tielemans already arguably had Leicester’s most prominent profile through excellent play, leadership and consistency. Following the worldie, the general consensus from non-Leicester supporters quickly became that they would all love the playmaker in their sides.

Sadly, Daily Mail carries the story that the 24-year-old wants to join the Reds and is attempting to push through a move. However, the hearsay, which originated in Belgium, seems to get one major element incorrect: the asking price. Surely the east Midlands side is aware that the quoted £64million fee is far too low to accept; FoL cannot see anything happening for less than £80m.
