Former Liverpool star Steve Nicol believes the team should look at James Maddison for a summer transfer.

The Foxes midfielder has been a revelation this season, his first in the Premier League.

Many big clubs are being linked with a move, including Manchester United and Tottenham.

Nicols feels that Maddison could add something different to the squad.

He told the Express: "(Jurgen) Klopp's recent three in the middle of the park for Liverpool, over the last couple of years particularly, has been about gaining possession back, about closing the opposition back, about working really hard and then getting the ball to the front three.

"I would love to see a little change in that with somebody like Maddison, who no question has already shown in the Premier League, from the middle of the park, he can open defences up, he can create chances.

“I think he will eventually score more goals than he is doing right now.

“I would love to see this. It would be a little change in the way that Klopp operated. But I think this would be a great signing.

“And do you know what, I'm going to say this is a hit. I would love to see this."
