Sports writer Luke Edwards believes it is inevitable James Maddison will leave Leicester City
Journalist Luke Edwards believes it is inevitable James Maddison will leave Leicester in the summer, but sees it as a positive in terms of the rebuilding of the squad.
Edwards told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast: "James Maddison is so important to Leicester. They are on a season of transition. They have had some wonderful years under Brendan Rodgers. It’s probably the most successful period in their history, but this is a transition season for them. "They are desperately trying to persuade Maddison to sign a new contract. He’s going to have a year left in the summer. I don’t think he’s going to sign that contract because I don’t think Maddison sees himself as staying to become Leicester’s star man, be the player they are really reliant on, the superstar of Leicester. I think he will probably want to have a new challenge and you have to respect that decision of his.
