Manchester City and Newcastle United will reportedly compete for the signing of Leicester City midfielder James Maddison in the summer transfer window.
As reported by the Northern Echo, the Magpies will make a renewed attempt to sign the England international at the end of the season, having had a bid for the player rejected last summer. The 26-year-old is out of contract in 18 months and he has not signed a new contract at the King Power Stadium.
The report claims that City are also keen on a move for the midfielder, stating that the Blues have put Maddison's name close to the top of their summer wish list. Given that Bernardo Silva's future at the Etihad Stadium is unclear, it would not come as a surprise if the Blues targeted a new playmaker.
