Earlier this month, we carried a report from Sport, who stated Leicester City’s Youri Tielemans is an ‘attractive’ option for Barcelona in the winter market.

Friday’s edition of the same newspaper has a report discussing the La Liga side’s need to bolster their squad in the coming windows.

Leicester face the risk of losing their star for nothing at the end of this season since the 25-year-old is in his final year of contract.

According to Sport, Blaugrana sporting director Mateu Alemany has insisted that the club will focus on signing players who have deals running down in 2023. This includes Brendan Rodgers’ man.

The Belgium international is one of the ‘priority’ targets for Xavi Hernández’s side, who are ‘very attentive’ to his situation at the King Power Stadium. Tielemans’ ‘future is up in the air’ since the Foxes have failed to tie the former AS Monaco man to a new deal.

He’s has been a regular for Leicester and his national team, and that ‘great experience’ would make him a quality addition to the Barcelona squad, if they manage to secure his services.
