Available against Napoli Tielemans (calf) will be available in Thursday's Europa League clash against Napoli, Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed Wednesday.
Doubtful against Villa Tielemans (calf) is back on the training pitch but is unlikely to play versus Aston Villa on Sunday. Manager Brendan Rodgers told reporters, "Youri's back in training. James Justin...
Impact While it's certainly a step in the right direction for Tielemans, the midfielder is poised to miss his fifth straight contest due to his lingering calf problem. Considering Tielemans has started all but one of his 15 appearances for the club this season, in which he has registered three goals on 29 shots (nine on target), three assists, 52 crosses (10 accurate) and 28 corners, he should be a near-lock for the starting XI once fully fit.

Progressing well in recovery Tielemans is progressing well in his recovery from a calf injury and could be back in training later this week, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact Tielemans will miss Wednesday's trip to Southampton, but there's a slight chance he could be available Sunday at Villa. That said, he's returning from a muscle injury, so he probably won't be ready to start for another week, meaning the Dec. 12 contest is a better projection for a full return.

Remains weeks away Tielemans (calf) is "progressing well" but will be back "maybe within the next couple of weeks," according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact Tielemans' original timeline may have been closer to a month, which would line up with the manager's recent comments. Leicester weren't great in their first match without him against Chelsea and they'll likely be without him a couple more league matches, if not three or even four.

Confirmed out extended period Tielemans will be out "a few more weeks" because of a calf injury, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
Impact Tielemans suffered the injury just before the break and he still has a timeline of multiple weeks despite it being two weeks later. It looks like he'll be out the next two weeks, if not more, which means another change in the starting XI for Leicester. Tielemans has been massive for the club the last few seasons and this is his first true extended absence since becoming a regular in the 2019/20 campaign.

Injured Tielemans out of Belgium's World Cup qualifiers
Belgium midfielder Youri Tielemans has been ruled out of his national team’s upcoming World Cup qualifying matches because of injuryNOVEMBER 9, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Expected out multiple weeks Tielemans is expected to be out two-to-three weeks because of a calf and ankle injury suffered over the weekend, reports HLN.
Impact This is a somewhat positive update on Tielemans, who may only be out one league match, which comes at home against Chelsea. Still, he's the engine in the midfield for the Foxes, having started every league match this season. Fortunately, Leicester recently got back Wilfred Ndidi from injury, so that'll definitely help against the Blues.

Leaves late with calf issue Tielemans had three shots (one on target) and five crosses (one accurate) before leaving in the 77th minute of Sunday's 1-1 draw against Leeds because of a calf issue. According to...
Impact This isn't a good sign for Tielemans, but there's a chance it's only a minor issue and he'll be able to recover over the break. He's a massive part of the midfield for Leicester and if forced to miss time, it'll undoubtedly force them to change formations and tinker the starting XI.

Created five chances in loss Tielemans created five chances from five crosses (three accurate) and took three shots (one on target) during Saturday's 2-0 loss to Arsenal.
Impact Tielemans tends to create chances in bunches as he's scored twice provided one assist and created 13 chances over his last four starts across all competitions. Between he and a resurgent James Maddison, Tielemans is a capable fantasy target with a decent scoring floor as long as he continues to get involved with set pieces as well. Up next is a trip to Leeds United, which have conceded the ninth-most chances to midfielders in the league.

He has two goals and an assist in his last three appearances in all competitions, and he will be hungry for more next weekend against Arsenal, which have conceded 13 times in nine Premier League matches.

Impact If Tielemans were to miss out, it would be a significant blow to the Foxes' attack considered he has generated one goal on 13 shots (four on target), two assists, 21 crosses (three accurate) and eight corners in his last five matches.
