Newcastle fans convinced James Maddison has dropped subtle transfer hint on Instagram

Newcastle fans believe they have spotted a subtle change in James Maddison's Instagram profile picture amid reports linking the Magpies with the Leicester star this month.

With less than 48 hours until the transfer window slams shut, Eddie Howe's men will have to move quick if they are to secure the services of the 26-year-old, who has impressed for the Foxes this season. Maddison, who has 18 months left on his current deal at the King Power Stadium, marked his return from injury in City's 2-2 draw against Brighton on January 21 before starting in the 1-0 win at Walsall on Saturday.

It was an impressive performance from Maddison and some Newcastle supporters are beginning to get excited again. They even pointed out a change on Maddison's Instagram account as he switched his picture from him alongside teammate Jamie Vardy and Leicester owner Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, to him wearing an England shirt after he was called up to their World Cup squad.
