Tottenham’s disappointment at failing to qualify for UCL will steal the spotlight from them
Tottenham Hotspur is feeling the pain of missing out on European club competitions, including the UEFA Champions League (UCL), in the transfer market.
Spurs are looking to add central midfielders and central defenders in the summer transfer window in July. This is especially true given the number of winnable games that have been lost due to the lack of a so-called core.메이저놀이터
James Maddison (Leicester City) is on the list of potential signings. Spurs have plenty of midfielders in the fighting chicken style, but they don’t really have a playmaker who can get the ball forward. This is why Tottenham fans continue to miss Luka Modric (Real Madrid) and Christian Eriksen (Tottenham Hotspur).
On the 13th (KST), major media outlets such as the Express, a British general newspaper, reported that “Tottenham are interested in signing Leicester’s Maddison. Tottenham have been watching him for a long time. Leicester are also planning to sell him this summer.
English soccer legend Gary Lineker once described him as a “talented and intelligent footballer”. His soccer intelligence allows him to read the game well and his wide vision makes him a great addition to the forward line.
Leicester City midfielder James Maddison has been linked with Tottenham Hotspur, but Newcastle United are also interested.

However, it seems that Newcastle United, who have been backed by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund (PIF), have launched a full-fledged bid for Maddison. ‘Newcastle are confirmed to have held talks with Leicester over a huge transfer fee,’ the outlet reported. This is a huge blow to the Foxes.
It is understood that Maddison wants to play against clubs such as UCL. Newcastle are also said to be looking to capitalize on this and emphasize their comparative advantage over Spurs, who are unable to compete. Another advantage is that Eddie Howe is slightly more acclimatized to European soccer than new Spurs boss Enze Postecoglou.
In 30 league games this season, Maddison has scored 10 goals and provided nine assists. That’s with Leicester in 18th place and relegation assured, so it’s not surprising that the temptation to sign him would be hard to resist. This is especially true given that he is an emerging midfield wizard for the England national team.
