Di Marzio: Leicester midfielder on Milan’s list of targets with free transfer possible

Despite that fact that the window is not open andAC Milan have just had a major change in their management, the club continue to be concretely linked with transfer targets.

According to what is being reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, Milan are also trying to sign midfielder Youri Tielemans who will leave Leicester City on a free transfer when his contract expires at the end of the month.

Tielemans is a player Roma have also been working on for some time and there is also competition from Galatasaray. The Belgian is a player that chief scout Geoffrey Moncada knows well, given they were at Moncada at the same time.

Tielemans started his career with Anderlecht where he was part of the youth sector, moving to Monaco in 2017 and then Leicester two years later.

He can play either in a deeper midfield role or as a box-to-box player, and he racked up three goals plus two assists in 31 games for the Foxes last season.
