Tottenham have successfully signed James Maddison, the 'leading fox' of the pack.

New Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou's rebuilding efforts seem to be off to a great start, as the "London Spurs" completed three transfers in just four days, the most notable being the signing of James Maddison, the talented midfielder who Manchester United had relentlessly pursued three years prior.

James Maddison will soon make his debut in his new colors.

The Leicester and England star has agreed personal terms, including a £170,000-a-week salary and a five-year commitment, to become Tottenham's third summer signing.

Earlier, goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario officially joined Tottenham Stadium from Empoli (Italy) for £17 million, and midfielder Dejan Kulusevski was also targeted for a permanent transfer by Tottenham after a loan spell from Juventus.

"The Foxes" James Maddison had a breakout season but couldn't save Leicester.

After being relegated, Leicester let many players go but were reluctant to sell their "leading fox" James Maddison, as their goal was to quickly find their way back to the Premier League.

However, Leicester cannot prevent their captain from exploring his future once Maddison needs to compete at the highest level to qualify for England's EURO 2024 qualifiers and finals.

Maddison is a fairly complete attacking midfielder.

According to the agreement, Leicester will receive £40 million from Tottenham, plus add-ons to bring the contract value up to £45 million, as officially reported by Mail Sport.

For their part, Tottenham will pay Maddison a weekly salary of £170,000 plus additional clauses, enough to beat their biggest rival Newcastle in the race to sign the midfielder.

Tottenham need someone to share the workload with Harry Kane.

In a team that only managed 9 wins all season and scored 51 goals, James Maddison shone in his own way, contributing 19 goals in 32 appearances. One bird alone is not enough to carry the whole team, and now it's time for the 26-year-old star to find his own future.

If Harry Kane stays, Tottenham will have a new striker-attacking midfielder partnership where chemistry is crucial, as both play in similar positions for England.

James Maddison promises to be a great partner for Harry Kane, just like they are at the England national team.

Tottenham endured a disappointing 2022-2023 campaign despite being managed by three different managers. The Spurs entered their 15th consecutive year without success, and even failed to qualify for European competition next season.

The difficult problem has been handed to new coach Ange Postecoglou, and he needs to make changes, starting with the midfield by making good use of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, and soon James Maddison.

Maddison scored 10 goals in the Premier League, more than Kevin De Bruyne (Man City, 7 goals) and Bruno Fernandes (Man United, 8). He also had 9 assists in the Premier League, surpassing Fernandes (8) and Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard (7). According to Sofascore , key passes per game (2.30) also helped Maddison surpass Odegaard (2.08).

Tottenham's incredibly lucrative signing.

With extensive Premier League experience, a quick adaptation period, and the prospect of playing alongside Harry Kane, James Maddison's strengths make him an extremely valuable signing for Tottenham, both in terms of transfer value and utility. Tottenham need to reduce their reliance on Harry Kane to win trophies, and Maddison is the solution to this difficult problem.
