Leicester Midfielder Tielemans 'Open To Liverpool Move'

Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans would welcome an approach from Liverpool.

Tielemans would be 'open' to signing for Liverpool - that's according to transfer journalist and CBS reporter Ben Jacobs.

The 25-year-old midfielder was left out of Leicester's team for their 2-1 defeat to Southampton amid reports he wants to leave the King Power. Midfield remains a position of vulnerability at Anfield with a host of injuries in that position.

Jacobs told The Done Deal Show: "There's a variety of midfielders that, of course, could be considered by Liverpool that are either cheaper or perhaps more stopgap options. One is Youri Tielemans, of course, who would be open to a Liverpool move.

"I know that because his agent had pushed Liverpool links earlier in windows, particularly in January when the Arsenal interest was just beginning and was more formative."
