James Maddison: I can win trophies as Leicester player

James Maddison insists he wants to win trophies with Leicester City.

The 22-year-old playmaker has become a bonafide star at the King Power, and has attracted interest from Manchester United.

In a Puma Football Instagram Live chat chat with Thierry Henry, Maddison said: 'It has only really come in the last year or two, but my biggest goal now is to win trophies.

"In my house I have a trophy cabinet and there are not many in there. There are individual awards but no trophies. I want trophies.

"When we lost over two legs to Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup semi-finals, it is a feeling I have never had before and that's when I knew something has to change.

"It was heartbreaking. Fingers crossed I can now make that next step.

"We have Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter-finals and hopefully we get to play that.

"My mouth gets wet when I walk around the Leicester training ground and the stadium and see the pictures of them winning the league and hear the players talk about it."
