Spurs transfer news: Mauricio Pochettino interested in signing James Maddison from Leicester City

The Mirror reports that Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is interested in Leicester City’s James Maddison.

The 22-year-old Englishman had a fantastic first season in the Premier League. Maddison racked up 7 goals and 7 assists at Leicester City.

Maddison can play in several positions and joined the Foxes from Norwich City at the start of the season.

Leicester paid £22.5million to sign the midfielder from the Canaries and the club wants a lot more for the Englishman, according to the Mirror.

Tottenham could have a lot to spend in the summer

The report adds that Tottenham could earn up to £72m by reaching the Champions League final, and Spurs could spend a major chunk from that in the summer.

Pochettino hasn’t been able to sign a new player in two transfer windows, and the Argentine believes that Maddison could develop further at Tottenham (h/t Mirror).

There are other clubs interested in the Englishman, who will play for the U21 side of the Three Lions in the Euros this summer, according to the report.

Spurs could do with someone like Maddison pulling the strings from the midfield, and it will be interesting to see if we make a serious bid for the 22-year-old.
