According to reports in England, Manchester United are prepared to enter negotiations to sign Leicester City star James Maddison this summer. The English playmaker joined The Foxes for £20m from Norwich City last summer.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has made signing the 22-year-old his priority and has contacted Leicester City about his availability. The Foxes have slapped a €60m price tag on their star - a sum United are rumoured to be ready to match.

Maddison has also revealed that he was a Manchester United fan growing up which makes him all the more prone to a move to Old Trafford. The likes of Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City have also kept an eye on him ever since he was a kid.

Transfer expert Duncan Castles has also backed Maddison to succeed Paul Pogba, who is being linked with an Old Trafford exit this summer.
