Former Newcastle United target James Maddison has landed himself in hot water with Tottenham Hotspur supporters just days after sealing a move from Leicester City. The England international completed his £45million move from the King Power Stadium following the Foxes relegation from the top flight.
The Magpies had two approaches for Maddison knocked back last summer and were tipped to return for the attacking midfielder this summer, but he's said to have preferred a move to Ange Postecoglou's side. The move become a reality earlier this week, but it's taken just a matter of days for rival supporters to dig out old tweets of the 26-year-old criticising his new club.
The tweets, which have now been deleted, saw Maddison take aim at former Tottenham forward Gareth Bale and criticize the Welshman, claiming arch rival Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere was ten times the player.
