Arsenal, Manchester United keen on signing Youri Tielemans

Arsenal and Manchester United reportedly still hold an interest in signing Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans, according to reporter Ben Jacobs.

The Gunners and The Red Devils are still eyeing a cut-price deal for the Belgium international, who started the season as one of the most promising young midfielders in the English top flight.

Liverpool were thought to be keen on a deal to sign Tielemans as manager Jurgen Klopp looked to find a long-term replacement for Georginio Wijnaldum after the Dutchman moved to Paris Saint-Germain.

The Leicester star has scored six goals and registered two assists in 23 appearances in the Premier League this term.

The 24-year-old will see his contract at the King Power Stadium expire at the end of next season.

Tielemans has won the FA Cup and the Community Shield with the east Midlands.

Manchester United and Arsenal continue to pursue Youri Tielemans. 25m is a bargain price. Nothing much in the West Ham links. David Moyes admires Tielemans but Hammers not currently frontrunners. There is no truth in repeated Liverpool links. #LFC have other priorities.
