OFFICIAL: Aston Villa sign Tielemans as free agent

Leicester have been relegated to the Championship despite having amazing players like Yuri Tielemans. As a result, the Belgian has been looking for another destination to show his potential.

Unai Emery's Aston Villa have announced on Saturday that Tielemans will join the Midlands outfit from July and will join as a free agent.

"Aston Villa is delighted to announce that the club has reached an agreement to sign Youri Tielemans. The Belgian international will officially become a Villan on July 1 after his contract with Leicester City has expired," they wrote on their website.

The 26-year-old has liked Emery's plans for the future and is delighted to be able to play in Europe next season. Several Leicester players such as James Maddison will also be looking to leave to avoid playing in the Championship next campaign.
