James Maddison is set to face Manchester United for the 10th time in his career on Sunday afternoon - three years on from when he was 'expected' to become a Red Devils player.
The 26-year-old is in the form of his life at Leicester, having scored nine goals and chipped in with five assists in just 16 Premier League matches this season. Maddison also earned himself a place in the England squad at the World Cup as Gareth Southgate rewarded the attacking midfielder for his excellent start to the campaign.
But Maddison didn't play a minute in Qatar as Mason Mount and Jack Grealish were amongst those preferred in that position - something that was criticised by fans and pundits alike. Since recovering from a knee injury he picked up at the tournament, Maddison has scored twice and provided an assist in four games, and put in a superb performance against Tottenham last week as he led the Foxes team out as captain for the first time.
