When: Today
This is one to keep an eye on as the window progresses.
We like him, he likes us and would like to join but it's not an easy deal to do.
He's their best player IMO, only has 2 years left on his contract and they're in desperate need of money. He is likely to fetch more then Tielemans so from a financial perspective, it makes the most sense to sell him. Rodgers doesn't want to lose him but their current situation means his opinion is basically void. Now that all sounds positive but they're currently very reluctant to sit down with us and I imagine they're trying their best to sell Tielemans first. However, they need to get a move on and if nothing looks like materialising with that, then they may have no option but to sit down and negotiate with us.
I must add that we have options for the creative mid, there are a few players we are looking at and I think most on here would be very happy with bringing any of them in.
The obvious pros for Maddison are being homegrown whilst also being proven in the league.
As mentioned, this is one to keep a close eye on. Leicester are slowly being forced into a corner and whilst we have the money available, we will definitely take advantage of teams who are struggling.
