Leicester City midfielder James Maddison says he's using his time with England to switch off from transfer talk.

Maddison is a target for Newcastle and Tottenham.

"It's a pause and put the blinkers on and focus on the job at hand," he told Channel Four.

"It was a tough end to the season but the positive about the games with England after having a little bit of a break between the last game of the Premier League season and now.

"it was good to refocus on these games, if it was straight away it would have been more difficult. I am fully focused on tonight and raring to go."
