Arsenal has been handed a boost in their bid to add Youri Tielemans to their squad as Leicester City prepares for life without the Belgian.
Tielemans is running down his contract at the King Power Stadium and Arsenal will pounce to sign him for a cut-price fee next month or as a free agent in the summer.
The midfielder is one of the best in the Premier League and the Gunners believe he will deliver fine performances for them if he moves to the Emirates. They have now been handed a boost as Ben Jacobs confirms via Twitter that they have offered Angers up to £25m for the signature of Azzedine Ounahi, who was superb for Morocco at the World Cup.
The midfielder is believed to be a replacement for Tielemans and his arrival could pave the way for Arsenal to get their man.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Tielemans is one of the best midfielders we can add to our squad and signing him cheaply or for free would be an absolute steal.
Leicester now believes they cannot get him to extend his stay and their market moves suggest they are replacing him in their plans now and in the future.

Don’t think we’ll make this move since MA is wanting to go all in on Ruben Neves this summer. A dream fit.
Nah, too slow and his average ceiling is for a mid table team.
A suggestion, not entirely tongue in cheek either.
Pehaps DAN SMITH, king of other Gooners scores and result prediction articles, would kindly start a prediction contest as to WHEN these constant Tielemans rumours will FINALLY cease.
My guess is not until the summer window has gone by, with him still unbought. UNLESS he goes elsewhere prior to then. They clearly have much scope for annoying we realists on JA a lot longer yet! Sigh!
Should not go for Belgium players. Their golden era has gone.
Kenny it is plainly unintelligent to judge any players ability by NATIONALITY. Surely you MUST see that is nonsense!
I do not much rate Tielemans and am convinced he will not be ours.
But that is based purely on HIS ABILITY, and not in any way on his nationality. That would be INCREDIBLY STUPID!!
Not based on country but not many good footballers from there historicaly. Belgium was within top 5 or may be top 3 with their golden generation (Lukaku, Hazard & many more) the last few years. Anyway, I don’t fancy their brand of soccer.
Youri Tielemans is a great experienced midfielder in the premiere league and should be many various in Arsenal Square.
The Arsenal board should think on this possibility to sign him right now in this transfers windows. None know about tomorrow, is most important one bird in our hand than two flying…
I think tielemens would be a great addition to the sguad, him, 1 more striker and we could win the league, ben white can move to center at any stage
