Arsenal will attempt to sign Youri Tielemans again in the January transfer window after pursuing his signature for much of the last few seasons.
The Belgian is running down his contract at Leicester City as the Foxes desperately try to get him on a new deal, but he seems intent on leaving, even though he did not have a good World Cup.
Arsenal wanted a midfielder in the summer but failed to land one, they now want to correct that in January to keep themselves in top form for the second half of this season.
Mikel Arteta’s side is at the top of the Premier League table now and remains one of the in-form sides in Europe, but that could change in the second half of the season.
They know they must keep playing well and believe adding new men to their squad could help them achieve as much as possible, so Tielemans is likely to move to London.
Matchplug understands Arsenal might pay as much as £20m to add him to their squad from the second half of this season.
