2025 Fantasy Outlook
Tielemans was an undisputed starter and leader for Aston Villa throughout the 2024/25 season, contributing consistently in midfield with three goals, seven assists and smart distribution. He offers control in possession and composure under pressure, and his ability to dictate tempo and connect phases of play made him one of the most reliable midfielders in the league. With two full seasons under Unai Emery, Tielemans enters 2025/26 well positioned to build on his production and remain a central figure. The main question for upside is whether he'll play more in an attacking role or sit deeper next to a defensive midfielder, something that often changes during a match.
Suffers injury
Tielemans is out for the time being after suffering an injury in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Aston Villa, according to John Townley of Birmingham Live.
ANALYSIS
Tielemans was called off the field at halftime due to an injury and is now out for the time being due to an undisclosed injury. This is a tough loss for the club, as they are already without Boubacar Kamara and Amadou Onana in the midfield due to hamstring problems, now missing another man in the middle. The club turned to Evann Guessand to fill his spot Saturday, with the club running low on options in the midfield.
