Medical clearance paves Tielemans' English move to Manchester United

Youri Tielemans, the Belgisch midfielder, is on the brink of completing his Engelse toptransfer to Manchester United after passing his medical at Old Trafford. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano confirmed the Belgian international cleared the examination at 10:14 today, paving the way for a five‑year contract that runs to the summer of 2031. Romano, speaking as the club’s medical report was finalised, said the Belgian has satisfied all fitness criteria. The clearance removes the last hurdle before Tielemans signs his new deal. Manchester United previously triggered the €41 million release clause in Tielemans’ Aston Villa contract. A personal agreement between the player and the English side had already been reached, leaving no remaining obstacles. Tielemans enjoyed a strong season with Aston Villa, emerging as a leader in midfield. He helped the club lift the Europa League, scoring in the 3‑0 victory over SC Freiburg in the final.
