Looks like TOTTENHAM are doing KLOPPS in their pants, as rumours strengthen that we are pushing HARD for Maddison today, the following is from the Tottenham Board:

"it is claimed that Newcastle will be entering the fold for his signature hence making it way tougher for us to complete the deal.

Newcastle had a dream season under Eddie Howe and are in a position to offer UEFA Champions League football in addition to hefty wages due to the change of their ownership.

It is important that we do not miss out on this deal as the addition of Maddison to the team would bring a big chance to create chances out of midfield.

He would be an astute signing and would allow other players such as Pierre Emile-Hojberg and Yves Bissouma to do what they are good at, which is protecting the back four and transitioning the defence into attack.

Hopefully, the board is aware of the reignited interest from Newcastle and are willing to step up their interest in the player ahead of a tough bidding war. Eddie Howe is an exciting manager to work under for any young player in England.

Moreover, the Toons can offer him UEFA Champions League football and with their new Saudi owners, are a tough team to compete with financially in the market. Spurs have to be quick, smart and decisive if they want to beat Newcastle for Maddison.
