£150k-a-week midfielder drops massive hint with Chelsea keen on transfer deal!
Chelsea transfer target Youri Tielemans has dropped a stunning Leicester City hint
Since moving to Leicester in 2019 in a deal worth £40.5million, Tielemans has made 50 goal contributions in 166 games, helping the Foxes win the 2021 FA Cup and nearly qualify for the Champions League twice.
However – he was one of the most talked about players in the summer transfer window – with the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal reportedly interested in trying to get a transfer deal done – but he somehow stayed put
But Leicester are the only team in the league yet to win this campaign, and have been on the end of several heavy defeats, including 4-2 at Arsenal, 5-2 at Brighton and 6-2 at Tottenham just last Saturday
Yet Tielemans has claimed that he is happy to have stayed at the King Power and even hinted that he could yet sign a new deal with the club.
What has he said?
‘I’m not going to speak too much about my contract situation at the moment,’ the 25-year-old said at a Belgium press conference while on international duty.
‘My family is very happy there [in Leicester] and that’s important. I didn’t leave in the summer as I always said the project had to be the right one.
‘Just because things are getting worse now at Leicester doesn’t mean I should regret [staying].
‘Whether you are in your last contract year or not, it’s also not the case that I talk to the club every day about my extension or not. That’s work for my agent.
‘In the end I will decide. There was talk of different clubs, but I won’t go into that.’

Right now – Tielemans will be loyal to the club – especially as his words could make it even worse for Brendan Rodgers
If the right offer arrives in January and we fully expect him to leave the club then or at the end of the season – despite this latest hint
