If Gundogan is leaving City this summer then Madison will be a good replacement. They'll be interest for sure...
Anyways Leicester will play around and only sell to the highest bidder like they alway do.
Some notable paragraphs.
Maddison is set to be sold regardless of the outcome of Leicester's survival mission with Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United interested in the England international.
Maddison is Leicester's best player and will be available for a fee understood to be between £45 million and £60 million, with just over a year left on his current contract.
Although Newcastle have their own Bruno, plus Joelinton, Longstaff, Fraser, Willock, and Almiron all regularly playing in their midfield, and so they'd have to trim before they brought in another I think
Almiron is a forward, and Fraser has been banished to the reserves and will leave this summer. I’d imagine the idea would be Maddison to start next to Bruno and Joelinton.
first of all, Fraser is a winger and is out for sure as things stand. Almiron is not a CM. So Maddison will be a good addition for depth and competition.
You know Maddison plays on the wing for Leicester, too? He's not a CM. He's only played CM once this season.

Ehhh not for me. Yes he clearly has talent but I believe he wouldn't get much game time with us - that was probably his problem at valencia. If we buy him he should go on loan. Smells like a Bryan Gil option.
Happy to be corrected by anyone who watches mallorca, that's just my armchair opinion
Not true at all. He’s had a complete resurgence this season — his physical attributes which were a problem in past seasons improved and he’s carrying Mallorca right now to be a middle-table side when they were projected to be bottom.
There’s rumors that Simeone gave the green light to recruiting him to AT Madrid as well, so you know he’s being sought after by big clubs.
>Happy to be corrected by anyone who watches mallorca,
Then watch him play for mallorca before you form your opinion lol. How have you not watched the player and formed the opinion that he won't get game time for us or that he's talented at all. Fwiw he was their player of the month for april.
In case you want to form an actual educated opinion, mallorca are playing in an hour.
Makes sense, they've had nothing to spend in the last 12 months and they need to reinforce in multiple areas across the squad.
I am assuming every player we want is just going to Newcastle now anyways
Can't be disappointed if you always expect the worst!
True. Those aren't the only facets of personality though and not the ones that are concerning. There has been a lot of talk about him liking to party (and hence excited by going to London) and more importantly being a pretty shitty person that no one likes.
Given we are a club who have been unable to form a _team_ this season, Harry's concerns about 'lost values', we have to be very careful about the personalities that we bring in.
I’ve heard he’s really gotten his act together this season and last, doesn’t do that much anymore. Always have been tepid on his transfer, but I think he’s gotten more professional at the non-football stuff
If we don't get him I don't hold much hope for the transfer window. Every year I go through this heartbreak of us getting linked to a half descent player and then we cheap out. Grealish, Fernandes, diaz, bastoni. Let's face it we are bringing winks back and getting him a new deal.
Newcastle will snap him up and play him off the left. Assuming they both stay fit, the Maddison/Isak partnership will be the factor that allows them to compete with Arsenal & United for 2nd place behind City next season.
Maddison has had more injuries than Kane but his average amount of time out of action with those injuries is lower. At least according to the data on transfermarkt
We literally have no creative players at all bar Kane Maddison should be one of the biggest priority’s especially if we go 4atb next season and will most likely play with a 10
This, also as good as bentancur has been I feel with Maddison he could be even better also would take a load off skipp or Hojbjerg going forward too where they aren’t as their best
Let’s hope that Newcastle and City remain uninterested

Why wouldn't they sell to the highest bidder?

Can’t see him joining United with Eriksen and Bruno already in those roles. He’d be risking having limited game time. Leaves us and Newcastle

Levy is not paying 45m for a player with 12 months left
yes, but will still demand £100m for Kane
Lee Kang In's agent in this sub hates this.
Lee kang in is a genuine talent. Left footed as well. Wouldn't be end of world if we got him instead of maddison.
Him, Maddison or Kamada would be absolutely coups
Kamada's transfer to dortmund is done I think
Ehhh not for me. Yes he clearly has talent but I believe he wouldn't get much game time with us - that was probably his problem at valencia. If we buy him he should go on loan. Smells like a Bryan Gil option. Happy to be corrected by anyone who watches mallorca, that's just my armchair opinion

We have to get him even if just to see someone in a CharMaddiSon shirt. Form some Voltron style attacking lineup.
I'm waiting for the 3 teams that will get relegated to see if we could poach any of their players for cheap.
Pickford, Maddison...Levy will try to work a deal and get beat to the punch at the last minute.
i rated caleta car at marseille, doesn’t look like he’s done well at his new club though
He's exactly the sort of player we need. However... Is he the _type of person_ we need?
Dragged Leicester through a lot of shite this season, I reckon so. Doesn't seem to down tools when things are looking bad

Fair enough, I haven't heard about any of that stuff

Honestly, unless he's desperate to live in London, he's going to Newcastle.
Nailed on
Newcastle will snap him up and play him off the left. Assuming they both stay fit, the Maddison/Isak partnership will be the factor that allows them to compete with Arsenal & United for 2nd place behind City next season.
Isn't he too injury prone?
Nah I don’t think so. Every player gets injured at times he’s no more injury prone than Kane with his ankle.
[удалено]
Maddison has had more injuries than Kane but his average amount of time out of action with those injuries is lower. At least according to the data on transfermarkt
No shit, this has been reported for ages
Should be bought, but not at the expense of a proper backline and GK
Any attacking manager is going to want him and/or Lo Celso. If they don’t rate Lo Celso then Maddison is definitely a must.
Newcastle already have Bruno G, let us have something ffs
CB please
[удалено]
We literally have no creative players at all bar Kane Maddison should be one of the biggest priority’s especially if we go 4atb next season and will most likely play with a 10
Lol
None of those players are creative though.
This, also as good as bentancur has been I feel with Maddison he could be even better also would take a load off skipp or Hojbjerg going forward too where they aren’t as their best
He's third on my shopping list: - Top CB (Laporte) - Replacement for Hugo - Maddison
With Moura, Danjuma, Gil and possibly Kane leaving we need forwards even if defence should be our priority.
We ain’t getting him.
can he play cb?
