Newcastle United may not be able to use Martin Dubravka as a makeweight in their pursuit of Leicester City star James Maddison this month. The Foxes are said to hold an interest in the Slovakian as first choice stopper Kasper Schmeichel bids farewell to the King Power Stadium.
Schmeichel's 11-year stay at Leicester is nearing an end after French outfit Nice reached an agreement to sign the 35-year-old this week. Meanwhile, Brendan Rodgers' side are fighting hard to ensure James Maddison doesn't leave amid interest from the Magpies.
Speculation suggests Newcastle could persuade the Foxes to soften their stance on the attacking midfield by offering Dubravka as part of any deal. However, Rodgers has already admitted he will give current Leicester goalkeepers, Danny Ward and Daniel Iversen, the chance to step up.
