'Unreasonable': Fabrizio Romano Confirms Arsenal Stance On Youri Tielemans
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Arsenal find Leicester's demands for Youri Tielemans unreasonable.
The Foxes demand about £35-40m for the player whose contract expires in a year's time.
Arsenal find such demands excessive and have no intention to pay this fee - despite agreeing a £45m deal for Gabriel Jesus who was in the same situation.
Leicester have agreed to sell Wesley Fofana to Chelsea for ₤75m, so they are under no immediate pressure to sell Tielemans to raise funds for new signings.
At the same time, they'll have to lower the asking price if they want to avoid losing him for free in less than 12 months.
