Tottenham may have been handed a huge boost in their pursuit of Leicester City and England playmaker James Maddison in the transfer window. This comes after the Foxes have potentially already lined up a replacement for the midfielder.
A creative player has been a missing piece for Spurs since the arrival of Antonio Conte, with the side unable to land one in the summer window. Christian Eriksen was linked with filling that role as a free agent, but the Lilywhites didn't pursue a return as the Dane made a move to Manchester United instead.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Leicester City are in advanced talks to sign Brazilian winger Tete from Olympique Lyon. Discussions are now said to be at the final stages.
