Arsenal trailing to Newcastle in the race to sign James Maddison this summer

James Maddison’s transfer window is closing quickly for Arsenal, as Newcastle United now holds the top spot in the market

Since Mikel Arteta’s team has been keeping an eye on Maddison for some time, Leicester City’s relegation gives Arsenal the chance to sign the English international.

Many English clubs are trying to sign the 26-year-old because Maddison is not anticipated to play in the Championship next season.

Maddison has established himself as one of the top midfielders in the Premier League in recent years, and his signing would give Arsenal much-needed depth.

The Daily Mail claims that Newcastle is currently ahead of Arsenal in the race to recruit Maddison and is also serious about doing so. Tavares coming to Arsenal and playing a role next season are improbable given Mikel Arteta’s current strong preferences for Oleksandr Zinchenko and Jakub Kiwior, so this is definitely a rumour to keep an eye on.

Newcastle can provide Maddison with the same level of competition he would find at Arsenal now that they have clinched their return to the Champions League. Newcastle’s interest in Maddison should be taken seriously, and if we want to sign him as one of the best players available, we must move quickly.
