Leicester are hopeful that Youri Tielemans will sign a new contract with the Foxes, as they look to avoid losing Belgian for FREE next summer... as Brendan Rodgers admits the midfielder's future will be decided 'in the coming months'

Leicester still hope to persuade Youri Tielemans to sign a new contract with the club to end the risk of losing him on a free transfer next summer.

The Belgium midfielder’s current deal expires at the end of the campaign and though an offer has been on the table for much more than a year, he has still to commit himself to the club.

Arsenal were interested last summer but never made a firm bid as Leicester valued the 25-year-old at £25million.
