With Kasper Schmeichel leaving for Nice this week, Leicester are keen on Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, opening up the chance of a money in addition to player bargain.

Any exchange may as yet require a significant stretch of time to emerge, with the Foxes esteeming Maddison at £60m. Maddison partook in the best mission of his profession last season, contributing 12 objectives and eight aids 35 Premier League appearances. He joined Leicester for £24m from Norwich in June 2018 and is under agreement until June 2024.
