Latest Developments in Union Negotiations with Tielemans
Reports have revealed that Saudi Union is interested in acquiring the Belgian star Youri Tielemans, the midfielder of English club Aston Villa, during the current summer transfer window, to strengthen its squad with a player of great capabilities and extensive European experience.
However, Aston Villa, under the orders of coach Unai Emery, has decided to reject all offers made for the player, insisting on his continuity within the team's project, especially given the impressive performance he delivered last season.
In the same context, Belgian journalist Florent Malice confirmed that Tielemans feels comfortable and happy at Aston Villa, considering this period one of the highlights of his career, which makes a transfer to Union a "surprise" if it does indeed happen.
Despite the challenges, observers believe that Tielemans' transfer to Union could be an ideal option, given the balanced performance he offers and clear football maturity at the age of 28.
The player has significant experience, having previously played for prestigious European clubs such as Anderlecht, Monaco, and Leicester City, before moving to the Premier League with Aston Villa, which increases his technical and market value.
Tielemans' market value is estimated at €38 million, a figure that would enhance the market value of Union if the deal is completed, providing a strong boost in global contracts.
The Belgian star also excels in his ability to play in multiple midfield positions, along with his creativity in playmaking and building attacks, and his precise shots from outside the penalty area.
In the 2024/2025 season, Tielemans played 53 matches, scoring 5 goals and providing 10 assists, reflecting his significant impact on the course of matches and his ability to skillfully lead the midfield.
