Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers said he would love to keep Belgium international Youri Tielemans at the Premier League side, but understands players have short careers and might want fresh challenges.
The midfielder, whose contract runs until June 2023, has been linked by the British media with a switch to Leicester's Premier League rivals Arsenal. "I'd love it to be here at Leicester, that's natural, but I understand it's a very short career. For players it's about ambition, the challenge and sometimes it's about a different environment. We have seen it before many times.
Rodgers said he enjoyed a close relationship with Tielemans, who has six goals and three assists across all competitions this season.
