Tottenham Hotspur has commenced discussions with Leicester City regarding a potential transfer deal for James Maddison, as the midfielder is poised to depart from the Foxes ahead of the upcoming season.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the newly-appointed Spurs manager, Ange Postecoglou, has expressed his desire for the club to secure the services of the English international. However, Tottenham faces stiff competition from Newcastle United in their pursuit of Maddison, as the Magpies, who failed to secure his signature last year, have now taken the lead in the race, thanks to their diligent groundwork.
Nonetheless, Tottenham is determined to disrupt Newcastle's plans and has officially opened talks with Leicester to negotiate a move for their highly-regarded midfield star, as reported by talkSPORT. The Foxes are hoping to command a substantial fee of up to £60 million for the 26-year-old, who has had an impressive season, contributing ten goals and nine assists in 30 Premier League appearances.
