Youri Tielemans’ move to Leicester City has seemingly moved a step closer, with reports this morning (Monday) that the Monaco midfielder has completed his medical with the Premier League club.

Despite that, Leicestershire Live understands both clubs are still yet to agree a fee for the 22-year-old, though personal terms between Tielemans and the Foxes have been thrashed out.

It’s hoped the club record deal will be concluded in the coming hours to enable the Belgian international to join Brendan Rodgers and the Foxes squad out in France at their pre-season training camp.

Tielemans and his agent arrived in Leicester on Friday, spending the weekend in the East Midlands while both clubs attempted to agree a suitable deal for the midfielder, though his representative returned to Belgium on Saturday.

It’s widely expected that City will have to pay around £40m for Rodgers to get the man who impressed during a successful loan spell at the King Power Stadium last season, which would represent a club record.

Should City complete the signing of Tielemans, their spending for the summer would rise above the £70m mark, following the arrival of £30m Ayoze Perez and James Justin, who is believed to have cost around £6m.
