Leicester City’s classy midfielder Youri Tielemans admitted that he couldn’t wait for the international break to come so he could get away from all the doom and gloom he’s currently experiencing in the Premier League’s bottom club. The Belgian international said in his national team’s press conference that it’s hard not to think about his club’s predicament – after winning only one point from the opening seven games. In such circumstances, getting away for a few days is a blessing.”I’m happy to get some fresh air here with Belgium because it’s tough at Leicester right now. It’s clear that things are not going well at the club. We are doing everything we can as a team.”##NAJAVA_MECA_6660739##Being bottom of the league is not only a matter of sport. It gets to the heads of fans, players and club staff. The psychological aspect of what already seems to be a relegation battle cannot be denied.”At Leicester, the consecutive defeats have affected us as a group. We need to benefit from this break to recharge our batteries. It’s hard to get it off my mind as it keeps running through my head. Only my kids sometimes prevent me from thinking about it.”Tielemans had a chance to leave the club after Manchester United and a host of other clubs expressed interest of signing him. However, the Belgian decided to stay – and he claims he has no regrets.”I’m not going to speak too much about my contract situation at the moment. I didn’t leave Leicester in the summer as I always said the project had to be the right one. Just because things are getting worse now at Leicester doesn’t mean I should regret staying.”Manchester United want to sign Leicester City and Belgium midfielder Youri Tielemans in the January transfer window. pic.twitter.com/uy16SiNjqu— Transfer News (@TransfersLlVE) September 17, 2022 Leicester conceded 22 goals this season – more than any other side in the top four divisions, leaving head coach Brendan Rodgers’ future in doubt.
