Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers is braced for more approaches from rival clubs regarding star midfielder James Maddison amid interest from Arsenal and Tottenham.
The Gunners hold a long-term interest in Maddison and were keen to sign the 25-year-old last summer, but opted to sign now-club captain Martin Odegaard instead. Spurs had registered a strong interest in Maddison throughout the summer transfer window but were put off by the Foxes' £70million valuation.
The signing of Fabio Vieira for £35million from Porto in the summer may have signalled the end of Arsenal's interest in the Leicester star, but his versatility could see him be utilised in a similar role to that of Granit Xhaka which has seen the Swiss midfielder become a newfound goal threat in Mikel Arteta's team. Maddison registered 30 goal contributions in 52 appearances last term and has started the new campaign strongly, once again sparking speculation over his future at the King Power Stadium with his current deal set to expire in 2024.
