Newcastle United target James Maddison is holding out for a move to Arsenal or Tottenham Hotspur, according to recent reports.
The Gunners were heavily linked with a move for Maddison last summer and football.london reported at the time that technical director Edu was indeed keen to bring the England international to the Emirates Stadium. However, a move failed to materialise and the north Londoners eventually signed Norwegian playmaker Martin Odegaard instead.
This summer, Maddison has been linked with Arsenal's local rivals Spurs, who hold a long-standing interest in the talented midfielder, football.london understands. Still, newly-rich Newcastle appear to be the club actively pursuing the former Leicester City star the most, with Sky Sports reporting that the Magpies lodged a £50 million bid on Tuesday afternoon, with the Foxes said to be holding out for £60 million.
