Maddison close to signing new Leicester deal

James Maddison is close to agreeing to a new deal with Leicester City.

Maddison has emerged as one of the Premier League's brightest young stars over the past 12 months.

And the Foxes are looking to ward off any interest in Maddison by handing him an improve deal, per The Telegraph.

The news comes as a blow to Manchester United, who were ready to make a huge offer for the England international this upcoming summer.

Maddison still has three years remaining on his £55,000-a-week contract.
