​Norwich whizkid Maddison completes Leicester medical

Norwich City have reportedly accepted a bid for their youngster James Maddison from Leicester City.

BBC and other outlets are reporting that Maddison has even passed his medical at Leicester, as his big money move is set to be finalised.

Maddison will join for a fee that is close to £24 million. The 21-year-old managed 15 goals in 49 games for Norwich last season.

There was interest from other clubs in Maddison, including from Everton and Southampton, but he wanted a move to Leicester.

It is another move for Leicester in this window, having already signed Jonny Evans and Ricardo Pereira in recent weeks.
