"I think this season I have taken a step forward. There is more regularity in my game and I'm important to the team� he said,via HardTackle.
He further stated: "The speculation about my transfer fee I let pass me by. The money is primarily something that Anderlecht will be better with. Interested clubs can always contact my agent. I just try as much as possible to play football and then we'll see at the end of this season."
Arsenal have been linked with the Belgian for quite some time now, which is no surprise given Arsene Wenger's view on young players. He would fit right into Wenger's side, especially seeing how Santi Cazorla isn'tgettingany younger and has now become injury prone.
However, Arsenal will face stiff competitionfor Tielemans' signature, as their north London rivals are also keen. Mauricio Pochettino is eager to add fresh faces to his midfield in the summer, withTielemans top of his his priorities.
