Leicester City in talks with midfielder Youri Tielemans over a potential new £100,000-a-week contract that would make him one of the club's top earners... with boss Brendan Rodgers keen to tie down Belgian star

Youri Tielemans is in talks over a new contract at Leicester that would place him among the club's top earners.

The midfielder has been in outstanding form this term to help keep the Foxes in the top four throughout the campaign and making 29 appearances in all competitions.

Tielemans' current deal expires in the summer of 2023 and Leicester are keen to tie him to a new one, potentially worth about £100,000 a week, as a reward for his superb displays. James Maddison signed a new contract in the summer that took him to the £100,000 a week mark.
