Manchester United and Chelsea are two of five clubs interested in signing Leicester City's Youri Tielemans, according to a report.

Manchester United and Chelsea have been credited with an interest in signing Leicester City's Youri Tielemans, along with three other clubs, according to a report.

The 24-year-old continues to be linked with a host of Premier League and European clubs, with his contract in the East Midlands expiring in the summer of 2023.

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers, and the club hierarchy, have been keen to tie down the future of their Belgian midfielder for some time, but have so far failed with their contract offers.

Now according to 90min, United and Chelsea are among the clubs monitoring Tielemans' situation, along with Arsenal, West Ham United and Newcastle United.

The report continues with how the Foxes are reluctant to lose one of their key players, but with time running down on his current deal, they accept that they could be forced into a sale in the summer, with a figure of at least £40m required to prize him away.

Tielemans has appeared in 106 Premier League matches for Leicester since arriving from Monaco in 2019, including Sunday's 2-2 draw with West Ham at the King Power Stadium, where the Belgian netted Leicester's first goal from the penalty spot.
