Leicester City chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha has confirmed that there has been no progress on a deal for Youri Tielemans' exit from the club is stalling as things currently stand. The Belgian has 12 months remaining on his contract with the Foxes and could leave this summer before it expires.
Both Arsenal and Premier League rivals Manchester United have been linked with a move for the 25-year-old, with claims that £25million could be enough to secure his signature. football.london understands that a central midfielder remains towards the top of the Gunners' transfer priority list for the remainder of the window.
That could well see Tielemans, or a whole host of other options linked, become signing number six of a busy transfer market already for Mikel Arteta. Arsenal have spent over £100million in building a squad to challenge for the top four once again, having missed out narrowly last time out.
