Leicester midfielder Maddison hoping to hear from Newcastle

Leicester City midfielder James Maddison appreciated playing at Newcastle United this season.

That's according to CBS Sports' Ben Jacobs, with Newcastle boss Eddie Howe keen to ferry Maddison away from the Foxes this summer.

Jacobs reported: “I think Maddison was happy with the atmosphere at St James' Park, the culture of the club and Newcastle itself, which is just flying now.

"I think the chances of James moving are very high. If Maddison leaves, then only in the summer. If Leicester are relegated from the Premier League, it is clear that he will definitely leave the club.

"But, I think, even if the team is saved, he will still leave."
