News about Youri Tielemans

LEWIS STEELE AT VILLA PARK: Aston Villa missed the chance to secure their place in next season's Champions League as drew 3-3 with Liverpool at Villa Park.

Cody Gakpo restored Liverpool's lead before Jarell Quansah doubled it with a brilliant header after the break.

Lukaku is back in Italian football with Roma, his second loan spell since returning to the Blues in the summer of 2021. His second crack at the whip at Stamford Bridge went off track, with the Belgian forward moving to Inter Milan after just one season after falling out with ex-boss Thomas Tuchel. However, Belgium's 2-2 draw with England at Wembley, in which he scored a spectacular assist for Youri Tielemans' second goal, sparked controversy on Mail Sport's It's All Kicking Off podcast as to why it all went wrong in west London.

Chris Wilder pleaded a sincere apology to Sheffield United fans and assumed complete responsibility for the Blades' 5-0 thrallation by Aston Villa on Saturday night. The Premier League strugglers got off to a slow start in the game at Bramall Lane before being blown away by goals from John McGinn, Ollie Watkins, Leon Bailey, and Youri Tielemans within the first 30 minutes. The Blades then forfeited a fifth from Alex Moreno just 90 seconds after the second half had started, having seen out the final third of the first period without concession.

Sheffield United's supporters went from bad to worse after their team went from one to four goals down in a matter of minutes. Sheffield United disintegrated quickly after Ollie Watkins, John McGinn, Leon Bailey, and Youri Tielemans discovered the back of the net in quick succession. Facing title-chasers Aston Villa at home in the Premier League clash. As empty seats began to pervade Bramall Lane's stands, fans took to X, formerly Twitter, to express their dissatisfaction with the struggling top-flight club's struggling top-flight team's burgeoning top-flight team.

WONDERS OF THE PYRAMID: Just like that, we're now in the second half of the Championship season, with tables starting to get more organized, but there is a lot more to play for. With Leicester leading Ipswich Town by six points after the two shared a point each in their Boxing Day blockbuster brawl at Portman Road, the battle for supremacy is heating up. With Southampton chasing down the front-runners just five points behind the Tractor Boys, they will have to look in their rear-view mirrors, with fellow recently promoted Leeds not far behind either.

Players returning from the international tie between Sweden and Belgium that was called off after the murder of two supporters, are expected to help players returning from the international match between Sweden and Belgium. After talks between the players and their coaching staff, the match at King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels was postponed at halftime, with both teams deciding not to continue as news of the assault broke through. On Boulevard d'Ypres less than three kilometers away from the stadium 45 minutes before kick-off, two Swedish fans wearing national team jerseys were shot dead and a third was injured, and police in the Belgia capital killed the gunman, a 45-year-old Tunisian national named in local media as Abdesalem Lassoued, in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

The first international break of the new season is here, but Premier League players will not be given any time for rest and relaxation as they represent their respective nations. Any English top-flight player is residing in the United Kingdom, and the air miles are racking up for people traveling around the world to compete in international tournaments. When the Premier League returns, players will be able to travel for shorter trips abroad for European Championship qualifiers against Ukraine and Scotland, but others will have to face long-haul flights that could cause wreak havoc on their body clocks.

CRAIG HOPE IN ATLANTA, GEORGIA: Players from the Premier League have told their teams that they would be able to wear bodycams every week. Sadly, given the incredible knowledge gained from such a film in recent days, it will not be happening anytime soon. The technology will not be used in competitive matches, according to IFAB rules. And what a shame, that is, a regret revealed by Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes' brother, who wore a body camera during his team's 3-3 draw with Aston Villa in Philadelphia last weekend. The camera, which is stitched to a GPS vest under the jacket, was also tested by Villa's Youri Tielemans. To get the lens sight of the game, a small hole is cut in the jersey at chest level, and it takes about two minutes to get players up and ready to go.

After being dogged by transfer speculation for the past two years, Tielemans, who are due to retire this summer, will depart from the King Power Stadium. The Belgium international won the FA Cup and the Community Shield during his four-and-a-half years with the Foxes. He is now expected to be a free agent, but it does signaling the start of a transfer saga in which a number of clubs have expressed an interest in him. Tielemans will leave as one of Leicester's most sought-after players, but his career has notably declined this season, as well as much of Leicester's squad.

Leicester manager Dean Smith (pictured) has maintained that if Leicester avoided relegation this season, it would be a "great achievement." Last season, the Midlands finished eighth in the Premier League, four points off the Europa Conference League positions and six points behind the Europa League places. However, this season has been extremely disappointing, with Smith's predecessor Brendan Rodgers dismissed in April after a last-gasp loss to Crystal Palace.

Dean Smith's ailing side plays Liverpool tonight and find themselves in 19th position in the Premier League, two points adrift of safety with just three matches remaining. As a result, senior officials have been asked to postpone their annual function, fearing that it would not be appropriate. Despite the provisional date for the awards ceremony scheduled for next week, the focus will remain firmly on their make-or-break run-in, according to The Telegraph. Leicester's staff are also expected to be working head-first towards a significant salary cut in a further development that is likely to raise concerns at the King Power Stadium. Indeed, the same publication claims that wages would be reduced by up to 50% if the club's rank drops to the second category in the coming weeks.

Youri Tielemans has been speculated as a potential transfer to Liverpool this summer if Leicester City were to be kicked out of the Premier League. After pulling out of a contract for Jude Bellingham, who appears to be set to join Real Madrid this summer, Jurgen Klopp's side is in need of midfield reinforcements.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: When new Leicester manager Dean Smith came from a near-hopeless position three years ago, he said the same thing: We're playing tournament football. The term hit home. After the three-month absence due to coronavirus, both teams had crammed their remaining games into a 37-day span between June and July, the Premier League had resurgented. It seemed that it was more like a knockout tournament rather than a league season. Villa was seven points shy of being adamant, with four out of action, but eight points from those remaining games to stay above the line by a point. It is still one of Smith's finest accomplishments.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: Brendan Rodgers is hoping to repay Leicester's faith by remaining the club in the Premier League this season. On Saturday, the Foxes take on Southampton, who have had three different bosses this season. Only Leicester and West Ham have resisted the temptation to change out of the bottom seven clubs. Leicester has been tough, but Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha's faith hasn't wavered, to say the least.

With the club's transfer window set for a frantic conclusion, Brendan Rodgers is aiming for up to three more players to keep Leicester from relegation. After bringing left back Victor Kristiansen from FC Copenhagen, the Foxes have signed Brazilian winger Tete on loan from Shakhtar Donetsk. It's unclear what Youri Tielemans' future is. Since the Belgian midfielder is out of work in the summer, this is the last chance for a player who joined for £32 million in 2019.

After Jamie Vardy was barred from work for weeks, Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers will give FA Cup hero Kelechi Iheanacho his Premier League debut. With a 1-0 victory over Walsall, Iheanacho, who has scored in 23 FA Cup games, sent the Foxes into the fifth round. The 2021 champions and Youri Tielemans missed a penalty before Iheanacho's deflected strike ended any hopes of an upset.

SIMON JONES: The winter transfer window is less than a week, and everyone in the Premier League - yes even - is looking to add to their squads. We can expect more traffic over the next six days whether it's Arsenal looking to add firepower to their title defense or teams like Everton and Bournemouth trying to prevent relegation. Here's a look at what every club is shooting as the January window draws to a close.

Brendan Rodgers is back with Nottingham Forest, almost a year after the Leicester manager's brand his team'embarrassing in the FA Cup.' Leicester has been one of England's best stories of the last decade. Despite having funds that are dwarfed by those of the elite, the club won the Premier League in 2016 and the FA Cup five years later, while finishing fifth in both Rodgers' first two full seasons in charge.

On Boxing Day, the Premier League will resume, with more than six weeks off. It varied in terms of how many players from each team were at the World Cup in Qatar - from two at a few sides to 16 at Manchester City - but how did clubs' players get on?How far did they get, and how many minutes did they play? Sportsmail has a look at how the World Cup affected each team in the top division and how they might be affected going forward as a result of the tournament.

On the third matchday for just two last-16 places, we're set for a thrilling finale in World Cup F as Belgium, Croatia, and Morocco face off on a dramatic finale. With both matches - Croatia vs. Belgium and Morocco vs. Canada - being played simultaneously on Thursday afternoon, we can anticipate plenty of twists and turns. Croatia and Morocco have four points in the game as a result of their victories over Canada and Belgium respectively on Sunday.

Leicester hopes to strike an understanding with Youri Tielemans that will prevent their star midfielder from leaving on a free transfer next season. The Tielemans' current contract will come to an end of the season, meaning he will decide a pre-contract with an overseas club from January and Leicester will pay no fee for the 25-year-old, who is currently with the Belgium squad preparing for the World Cup in Qatar. However, Sportsmail understands that the Foxes are secretly confident that this will not happen. A new contract has been on the table for nearly two years, and although he has yet to sign it, the Leicester hierarchy has been in constant touch with his representatives throughout.

After his team's losses to a goalless draw against Crystal Palace, Leicester City centre Youri Tielemans has been chastised for his efforts this season. The Belgian midfielder has struggled to find his best form this season as the Foxes are currently fighting in the relegation zone, having only lost one game in the Premier League this season. Tielemans has been keen from top teams in the league, including Arsenal and Chelsea, but no move has come to fruition during his last year at King Power Stadium.

Arsenal's leaders returned to winning ways after defeating Brentford 3-0, with William Saliba and Granit Xhaka as the outstanding performers. With 3-0 and 6-2 victories at Wolves and home against Leicester respectively, Manchester City and Tottenham maintained the heat on the Gunners. Fulham beat Nottingham Forest 3-2, earning them their third victory of the season, while Everton defeated West Ham thanks to Neal Maupay's goal against West Ham. However, three games were postponed this weekend due to policing problems, although Queen Elizabeth II's coffin was on display. With all the attention and players' achievements so far this term, here's the most recent top ten of Sportsmail's Premier League Power Rankings.

ROB DRAPER AT THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM: If you wanted a team to play against to break your goal-scoring duck, then Leicester City would be your first choice at this point. So when Heung-min Son came to the field on 59 minutes after struggling to score so far this season, you might have guessed that his bad form would soon be coming to an end. Leicester, who were 3-2 down and last in the table on a point, had already shown the kind of defense that would have given your average Sunday League No.9 a chance, let alone a player of Son's caliber. He took him a few minutes to get to his stride, but it took him a little while to settle. But he will be in a generous mood at Leicester, as you can imagine. And when Rodrigo Bentancur, a tenacious ball hooper in the second half, stripped them of their possession and boosted an enticing ball into Son's path on 74 minutes, you didn't have to be Mystic Meg to guess what was coming.
