If Newcastle United can land James Maddison, he will immediately bring added value to their midfield ahead of their Champions League campaign. The Leicester midfielder is among their top transfer priorities this summer.
Eddie Howe is expected to strengthen the squad with the addition of some big names after securing a top-four finish last season. Maddison has been linked with a move to St James' Park for some time.
They pushed hard for his signature last summer but were unable to strike a deal with the Foxes, who stuck to their £50m price tag. However, Leicester's relegation to the Championship has only strengthened Newcastle's chances of landing the 26-year-old.
