Leicester City vs Man United - New midfielder Tielemans eyeing debut against Man United

New Leicester signing Youri Tielemans will hope to be involved against Manchester United.

Tielemans joined the club on Thursday on loan from Monaco and Foxes boss Claude Puel said he would assess the 21-year-old Belgium international midfielder’s fitness, having already played 35 times for club and county this season.

Only Daniel Amartey, who still working his way back from surgery after a broken ankle last October, is definitely out.

Caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer expects Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba to be fit.

Martial missed Tuesday’s 2-2 draw with Burnley with a slight injury sustained in training, while Pogba was seen limping out of Old Trafford after the match.

Chris Smalling returned to the bench in midweek after a foot injury and is pushing for his first appearance in two months, but fellow defender Marcos Rojo is out, while Marouane Fellaini completed his move to Chinese side Shandong Luneng on Friday.
