Deal On: Leicester City key man emerged as top transfer target for Liverpool

 


Real Madrid, Juventus and Liverpool are reportedly set to battle for the services of Leicester City playmaker Youri Tielemans.

Belgium international midfielder faces an uncertain future at the King Power Stadium as he has less than year left on his current deal.

A host of teams were rumoured with a move for Tielemans over the summer including the likes of Newcastle United, Arsenal and Man Utd, however, the Belgium international eventually stayed put with the Foxes.

Tielemans refused to comment on his contract situation at King Power Stadium when questioned by reporters during the international break.

“I’m not going to speak too much about my contract situation at the moment,” the midfielder told Sky Sports News.

“I didn’t leave Leicester in the summer as I always said the project had to be the right one. Just because things are getting worse now at Leicester doesn’t mean I should regret [staying].”

Rumours over Tielemans’s future is still rife and a number of top teams are believed to be closely keeping tabs on his situation, with the midfielder able to negotiate pre-contract agreements with foreign teams from January onwards as things stand.

While the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd are thought to still hold an interest in Leicester’s No.8, Calciomercato reports that Real Madrid and Liverpool have joined the race to lure him away from the King Power Stadium.

Liverpool set to make official move for 24-year-old midfielder valued at£39.8m

  Liverpool have reportedly reignited their interest in Matheus Nunes and are weighing up a £44m swoop for the Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder. The Portugal international was heavily linked with a move to Anfield during the summer transfer window, but Jurgen Klopp’s side decided against spending big on a new lynchpin. Still determined to test himself in the Premier League, Nunes became the latest Portuguese player to arrive at Wolves, who paid €45m (£39.8m) to bring the 24-year-old to the club from Sporting Lisbon. Nunes has one assist to show from 14 Premier League games for Julen Lopetegui’s side, and he is under contract at Molineux until 2027 with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. However, Nunes’s efforts have not been able to prevent Wolves’ slide down the table, with Lopetegui’s men sat 19th in the rankings after taking just 13 points from 17 games. Should Wolves drop back down to the Championship, Nunes would not be e...

(Video) Thiago’s three brilliant defensive challenges that demonstrate his Anfield dominance

  Thiago Alcantara had yet another brilliant display for Liverpool and it wasn’t just his usual passing and attacking prowess that was on show but his tackling and defensive abilities too. One video has been created to show three instances when our No.6 won the ball back inside his own half and they were all done with the usual style and class we are used to seeing from the Spain international. It wasn’t the best display from Jurgen Klopp’s squad but the 31-year-old could leave the pitch with his head held high, after helping the Reds secure all three points. Let’s hope his form continues and that we can extend our run of four successive victories in the Premier League. He is immense pic.twitter.com/KdobOK8Feh — - (@PassLikeThiago) December 31, 2022

Bayern Munich eyeing up another Liverpool star – Likely far cheaper than Mané deal

Image
 With a few clubs, including Manchester United, reportedly interested in Eric Choupo-Moting, currently at Bayern Munich, the Bavarian side are preparing for the worst. Having already lost Robert Lewandowski in the summer, the Bundesliga giants have had to rely on the Cameroon international more often than not, but his contract expires in the summer. This has made him attractive for many clubs in January, which is why Bayern Munich are looking at Liverpool for a potential replacement. This is because the Reds have a player in a similar situation as Choupo-Moting in Roberto Firmino, whose contract at Anfield expires in the summer. There have been reports the Brazilian wouldn’t mind extending at Liverpool, but he will take his time to evaluate what his future can bring him. Media Foot in France suggest that could include a transfer back to Germany, where he initially made a name for himself at Hoffenheim. The outlet explain the Liverpool forward ‘is among the profiles studied’ by...
