Fabrizio Romano has delivered new updates on Newcastle United's pursuit of Leicester City star James Maddison.
Although there are currently no formal negotiations, the Magpies are indeed seeking to sign the playmaker during the winter transfer window.
The 26-year-old's outstanding kick to a campaign led to earning a place in Gareth Southgate's 26-man World Cup squad last month.
Maddison is one of the Premier League's most promising midfielders right now and will definitely be searching for a higher level of football soon.
Therefore, a switch to St James’ Park could be an attractive option with Eddie Howe's side are standing third in the domestic league with Champions League football in their hands.
Exclusively writing for CaughtOffside, the football insider has stated that Newcastle remain heavily interested in the player, however, no official proposal is made as of now.
“At the moment, Leicester have not received official proposals yet.
“I’m told Newcastle interest remains and it’s strong, they really like the player but there are no concrete negotiations as of now. Let’s see if he will be one for January or for June.” added Romano.
