Alan Shearer gives verdict on James Maddison to Manchester United transfer speculation

Alan Shearer says he’ll be surprised if Leicester City star James Maddison signs for Manchester United. Shearer claims, if he was him he’d rather stay at Leicester. Maddison has long been linked with a move to United; however, the Red Devils are 13 points behind the Foxes. "I totally understand why, if it’s true, Manchester United would want James Maddison because he's a very, very good player," Shearer said. "But I would be amazed if Leicester were to let him go in this transfer window. The way things are going at Leicester, the way he's playing, what is at stake for Leicester… I cannot see them letting one of their top players go this January. "If I was him, yes [I'd want to stay at Leicester] at this moment in time. When you look at the situation that Manchester United are in in terms of challenging for top four, how much they have to improve, the time that will take. "I understand that they're a huge football club but, in terms of where James Maddison is at this moment in time, I think he's better off staying at Leicester certainly until the end of the season and then weigh things up again then."
