“Youri Tielemans has definitely decided not to sign a new deal with Leicester, they’ve been offering him a new contract for a long time," he said. "They’re pushing the player to sign a new contract to extend for many years and stay at Leicester for a long time but from what I understand, Tielemans has decided to turn down the proposal to extend the contract."

"So Tielemans will continue at top level for Leicester," Romano added, when delving into what the future holds for the Belgian. "But the decision is not to sign a new contract because Youri Tielemans will have many opportunities in the summer of 2022.”

According to Spanish newspaper AS, the Belgian could cost potential suitors anywhere between £33.6million and £50.4million this summer. Though with Manchester City and Liverpool credited with interest in Tielemans
