LEICESTER CITY have reportedly set their asking price for James Maddison amid interest from Tottenham and Newcastle.
The midfielder has impressed this season with nine goals in 21 Premier League games.
Maddison's form has won him many admirers as well as his first England cap, which came against Montenegro in November.

That means the Foxes have one last opportunity to cash in and are demanding £50million to let him leave, report The Telegraph.
Leicester announced losses of £92.5million for 2021-22 and selling Maddison would help their financial situation.

Tottenham are believed to be keen on the England star as they rebuild following Antonio Conte's departure.
Newcastle also want Maddison and could reignite their interest after missing out on the midfielder in January.
