Tottenham Hotspur midfielder James Maddison has been linked with a move away from the club at the end of the season.
The 28-year-old has been outstanding for Tottenham since joining the club, and he has established himself as a key player for the club. He has been hailed as their “main man”.
The England international has 11 goals and 10 assists to his name this season. Journalist Graeme Bailey has now revealed to TBR football that the player has more chance of staying at the north London club if Ange Postecoglou is sacked in the summer.
It has been a disappointing season for Tottenham, and the Australian manager has failed to deliver despite significant backing in the transfer market. There have been rumours that he could be shown the door in the summer, and it will be interesting to see if Spurs decide to let him leave.
Bailey said: “James Maddison’s future is far from certain to be at Tottenham. But we could very well see a summer of upheaval at Spurs.
“If Ange Postecoglou leaves, the Maddison conversation will have to be had – I believe there is more chance of him staying, should the manager leave. Maddison has England aspirations, and he has that in his mind.
“And I can tell you I know of a couple of Premier League clubs who would want him, but as said, it will depend on who is in charge – he could yet have a long-term future at Spurs.”
Tottenham must keep James Maddison
Tottenham are already lacking in cutting edge in the final third, and they simply cannot afford to lose Maddison any time soon. He is at the peak of his powers, and he is one of their best players. A new manager could help Tottenham bounce back strongly and get the best out of their players as well.
There is unlikely to be any shortage of clubs looking to sign the 28-year-old midfielder.
It would be ideal for the London club to go through with a managerial change and hold onto their best players.
