Manchester United and Arsenal prepare to go head to head for the signature of Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans, according to a report.

Manchester United and Arsenal are reportedly preparing to go head-to-head for the signature of Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans during this summer's transfer window.

The Belgium international has again been in strong form for the Foxes this season, scoring seven times and contributing three assists in 38 appearances in all competitions.

However, the midfielder's contract at the King Power Stadium is due to expire in June 2023, and he is believed to be keen to seek pastures new in the upcoming market.

A number of clubs, including Liverpool, continue to be linked with the 24-year-old, who has registered six goals and two assists in 23 Premier League appearances during the 2021-22 campaign.

However, according to CBS journalist Ben Jacobs, the strongest interest is arriving from Man United and Arsenal, with the pair preparing to battle for his signature.

Jacobs claims that Tielemans could be available for a fee in the region of £25m due to his contract situation with Brendan Rodgers's side.

The Belgian has scored 24 goals and contributed 22 assists in 146 appearances for Leicester since making the move from Ligue 1 outfit Monaco in 2019.
