Paratici gets Alli replacement, Conte buzzing: Spurs now eyeing 'immense' 25 y/o - opinion

According to The Sun, Tottenham are interested in signing James Maddison from Leicester City during the summer transfer window.

Things could hardly be going better for Spurs and Antonio Conte right now. The 4-0 victory away at Aston Villa on Saturday, the north London outfit’s sixth win in their last seven Premier League outings, moved them up to fourth in the table and three points ahead of Arsenal in fifth, albeit having played a game more.

With his side having scored at least twice in each of those recent games, Conte is also getting a charming tune out of this side offensively.

And, as per this latest report, Tottenham will look to boost their attacking options even further at the end of the campaign. The article says Spurs will battle Arsenal in their attempts to sign Maddison, with Leicester said to be looking for £60m to part ways with the playmaker.

But what potential impact would Maddison’s arrival at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have? We take a look at two possible consequences.

While Dele Alli may have now moved on to pastures new, few Tottenham fans will forget the displays he produced at the peak of his powers. In his first 146 games, he managed 45 goals and 42 assists, including 18 strikes during the 2016/17 Premier League campaign. His time at Spurs also coincided with the club’s best spell in recent memory, as they qualified for the Champions League for four years in a row and reached the final in 2019.

Unfortunately, the England international has been on the wane for a few years, not playing 30 or more league games since the 2017/18 campaign before joining Everton three months ago.

Daniel Levy has looked to replace his influence with the signings of similar playmakers such as Giovani Lo Celso and
