Liverpool ‘register interest’ in Leicester City star James Maddison

Liverpool FC’s quest for a midfielder has taken a new turn, as reports emerge that the Reds have expressed an interest in signing James Maddison from Leicester City. The 26-year-old sees himself linked with an exit from the King Power Stadium for a while, and this summer could finally be the year he moves on.

According to a report by 90min.com via ECHO, Liverpool informed Maddison’s representatives that they stand interested in signing the midfielder. The Foxes are also believed to be open to the idea of parting ways with Madders, which could be a huge boost for the Reds.

Maddison has been one of Leicester’s standout performers in recent seasons, and his creative ability and eye for goal would certainly be a valuable addition to Liverpool’s midfield. The Reds have struggled to score goals this season and the addition of Maddison could provide the creativity and goals that the team desperately needs from the midfield.

Liverpool’s midfield has been a concern for some time, with injuries and inconsistent form affecting the team’s performances. The signing of Maddison could help to address these issues, giving the Reds a much-needed boost in midfield.

Madders to the Reds?

Leicester’s concerning campaign has obviously stood well documented, with the Foxes involved in a relegation fight and recently parting ways with Brendan Rodgers as well. The 26-year-old may be keen to move on from the club and a move to Liverpool could obviously be an attractive prospect for the midfielder.

The reported interest in Maddison is a sign of Liverpool’s ambition, as they look to strengthen their squad and compete for titles once again. The Reds have a strong squad, but a lack of depth in the middle of the park is something which needs attention, and the signing of a player like Madders could help in that front.

Maddison’s addition to the squad would be a statement of intent from Liverpool, showing that they are willing to invest in quality players to improve their squad. The midfielder’s creativity and goalscoring ability would certainly make him a valuable addition to the team.

Liverpool’s interest in Maddison is likely to be welcomed by the club’s fans, who have been calling for the Reds to sign a midfielder for some time. In 48 appearances across all competitions for a struggling Leicester side, he has 18 goals and 12 assists.
