Aston Villa Agree Deal To Sign Youri Tielemans
Aston Villa have agreed a deal to sign Leicester midfielder Youri Tielemans.
The Belgium international, 26, will join the club on 1 July, after his Leicester contract expires.
Following Leicester’s relegation from the Premier League, Arsenal, Manchester United and Roma were also rumoured to be interested in Tielemans.
Tielemans – expected to be Villa’s first signing of the summer – joined Leicester in 2019 and helped the Foxes win the FA Cup in 2021.
The Belgian scored the only goal in Leicester’s 1-0 victory against Chelsea in the final. That was one of 28 goals he scored for the club in 195 appearances across all competitions.
