Tottenham Hotspur are stepping up their efforts to land James Maddison
According to popular Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham are now stepping up their efforts to sign James Maddison and are planning to bid for him really soon.
Tottenham are intensifying their efforts to secure the services of the 26-year-old attacking midfielder. It is understood that the North London club are poised to make an approach for Maddison in the near future, indicating their determination to land their priority target.
After Leicester City’s unfortunate relegation to the Championship, James Maddison is eager to ply his trade for a Premier League club next season. The English playmaker showcased his undeniable quality in the top flight last year, netting an impressive tally of 10 goals and nine assists.
His arrival at Tottenham would undoubtedly bolster their attacking options and create numerous goalscoring opportunities for players like the prolific Harry Kane. Tottenham are desperately lacking a player in his profile.
Over the past season, Tottenham heavily relied on Kane to shoulder the creative burden, a responsibility that may have hindered the team’s overall attacking prowess. However, with the potential acquisition of Maddison, this issue could be rectified, offering respite to the talismanic English striker.
The negotiations between Tottenham and Leicester City will undoubtedly be crucial in determining whether a deal can be reached in the coming weeks. Both clubs will need to find common ground and agree on a reasonable transfer fee for Maddison.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has given his seal of approval for the acquisition of James Maddison, viewing the 26-year-old as a key target for his vision of introducing an exhilarating brand of attacking football at the club.
Postecoglou, an Australian manager known for his progressive approach to the game, will relish the opportunity to work with technically gifted attacking players like Maddison. In fact, he desperately needs a player like the English playmaker.
Renowned for his versatility, Maddison can effectively operate as a number ten, providing creativity and guile in the final third. Equally adept as an advanced central midfielder in a three-man midfield setup, his close control and exceptional link-up play make him a valuable asset even when deployed in wider areas.

It cannot be stressed enough on how much of a priority Maddison is. Let’s hope Tottenham sign him before other teams make their move. Given that Postecoglou has earmarked Maddison as a key addition, the onus is on Daniel Levy and co to get the job done.
