James Maddison 'on verge of new Leicester City deal'

Leicester City midfielder James Maddison is allegedly close to penning a fresh contract at the King Power Stadium.

After contributing 12 goals and numerous assists in 51 Premier League appearances for the Foxes, the 23-year-old has been linked with a future transfer to another top-flight club.

Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are all said to hold an interest in the playmaker, who recently made his international debut with England.

However, according to talkSPORT, Maddison is ready to sign a new long-term contract with the East Midlands outfit in the near future.

While Maddison still has over three-and-a-half years left on his existing deal, Leicester are seemingly ready to reward the former Norwich City man for his recent impressive form.
