Man Utd manager Solskjaer targets Maddison for January

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is targeting Leicester City midfielder James Maddison for January.

The London Evening Standard says Foxes forward Maddison is now a top target for January or next summer after Solskjaer registered his interest.

Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James cost a combined £150m this summer.

England international Maddison has been a standout performer since signing from Norwich in 2018.

And it's suggested Solskjaer has decided he will continue to monitor his progress closely - along with a host of other Premier League clubs.

United have had a mixed start to the season, but Ed Woodward is willing to give him time to reshape the squad.
