Brendan Rodgers drops clue on Youri Tielemans' Arsenal move with stark transfer "need"

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers appears to have inadvertently offered a major clue into the future of Youri Tielemans with Arsenal chasing the signing of the Belgian international.

The former Anderlecht and Monaco starlet is out of contract next summer and is widely expected to bring his stay at the King Power Stadium to an end in the upcoming window as the Foxes aim to cash-in on his talents as opposed to losing him for free in the future.

Arsenal have emerged as one of his prime suitors, with Gunners boss Mikel Arteta having making Tielemans one of his top targets as he aims to continue his rebuild at the Emirates Stadium. As it stands, the North Londoners have not agreed a deal to sign the midfielder, with a fee yet to be finalised with Leicester.
