Martinez: "Tielemans is ready for Monaco"

INTERVIEWS Also Tielemans has been selected for the "Red Devils". He might even has to prepare himself for a place in the starting eleven against the Czech Republic. National coach Martinez talked this afternoon about Tielemans' choice for Monaco.


"For me, Tielemans is an example. Lots of young players leave Belgium on the wrong moment, Youri didn't. He was part of a big club, played a lot and won titles. After that, a step to a big club abroad should follow. Youri is now ready for that. This is a good scenario."

Since Axel Witsel is playing a game on Saturday with Tianjin Quanjian, he won't play on Monday against the Czech Republic. It is likely that Tielemans will replace him.
