Koke Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 Maddison had 10 goals and 9 assists in the PL last season. Would you sell him now for £50-60m or keep him and lose him for free next summer He'll get us promoted with 20 goals and 20 assists guaranteed. Unlike Tielemans, Maddison actually performed the last 2 years when the team and manager were crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LVFox Posted 23 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 23 June 2023 Please guys, a dose of realism is needed. There is no chance Maddison plays for us in the championship - Zero. Its merely a question of how much money we can get. Spurs will be hoping that Newcastle are pulling out now they have Tonali lined up, so they can string this out and get him for around 30 in August. That however will risk a Man City/United/Chelsea swooping in. I still personally think he's off to Newcastle for around 40-45ish 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are a championship club. We're not keeping him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Fox Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 According to the Guardian, we rejected a joint bid for Barnes and Maddison last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert09 Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 (edited) That england game cant have helped. If I was about to make a mega offer and saw him compared to saka and the others around him.. id be starting to question whether it would end up another maguire you could argue our last 4 big sales have all burnt clubs.... Drinky, chilwell, maguire, fofana... none of them have actually gone on to be as good as people thought. Theres bound to be a few clubs concerned about players from us now.

We have been helped by Lineker bigging up our players on MOTD. Maddison has regularly been singled out. Television highlights can be very selective. Madison's skill and intelligence is a given and highlighted. What they never talk about is his lack of physicality and pace. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that Man Utd are willing to pay 50 plus million for Mount, I'm amazed they haven't gone for Maddison instead, who is far better than Mount in my opinion.

fkas Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 Newcastle are looking to bring in a few players. So far they know the only competition for Maddison is Spurs and that Levy will piss about trying to pay as little as possible. They don't need to prioritise this deal, they can let us sweat a little and then come in when we are in need of cash in a few weeks and get a deal done.

I think Maddison will be desperate for champions league football and they will be able to come in at a lowish fee and get the deal done. I can see us accepting 40m when all is said and done and thats a steal for someone of his ability. Edited 23 June 2023 by Lambert09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozartfox Posted 23 June 2023 Share Posted 23 June 2023 Didn’t Levy screw Villa about offering 25m for Grealish? Yet he wants 100m for Kane who is 30 with 1 year left on his contract. Levy and Fluffkin are a pair of Muppets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think the best we'll do is take the cash they offer and then try and tag on a player or a loan as Newcastle will have to lighten their squad numbers before next season. £40m and a player might have to do.
