Rogers: I can't control tillermans' future, but I'll be well prepared

Recently, Leicester City manager Rogers was interviewed by the Daily Mail, in which he talked about the possibility of the departure of the player Thiramans in the team, and said for the first time that Leicester City needs to start preparing for the team to lose Lemantis.

The 24-year-old Belgian midfielder, who helped Leicester City score his only goal to win the first FA Cup in team history last year, has yet to renew his contract with Leicester City and his contract expires next summer. If Tillemans insists on contract extensions from different clubs, Leicester City will consider selling him in the future, or keeping him until the end of his contract to make his own choice.

Asked if the team would be affected by the issue, Rogers said: "There are times when you don't have a choice and you have to go and do it. You have to always look ahead, which is an important point. Sometimes something goes according to plan, but sometimes something unexpected happens. Lettimans' contract is now such a situation, you have to consider every possibility. Of course I would love for him to stay, but for the players it's about his future, his goals and the different circumstances he's in. Like before, although we qualified for the Champions League, we still couldn't stop the players from leaving. ”

"My relationship with Tillemans is great. When I first came to the team, I promised him that I would help him improve his level and make him believe in the environment we are in. Once my players are able to devote themselves to the game and training, I am at ease. As you can see, I love working here, but you have to respect everyone here because they probably won't be here for a long time. ”

It is reported that although James Justin, who has been absent for 11 months due to a knee injury, has returned from injury, Rodgers still hopes to be able to loan a center-back in the winter window.
