Impact Tielemans was a key figure in Villa's midfield last season, starting 21 of 25 Premier League matches and pairing four assists with a heavy defensive workload of 58 tackles and 18 interceptions, also handling set-piece duty that won't likely carry over at United given Bruno Fernandes' role as primary taker. His two goals for Belgium at this summer's World Cup, which ended in a quarterfinal exit, offered a reminder of his attacking upside in the right system. At Old Trafford, he could form a complementary midfield partnership with Kobbie Mainoo, blending his passing range and defensive discipline with Mainoo's more progressive game. His path to regular minutes will depend on how he fits within United's midfield hierarchy.
