Newcastle fans convinced of James Maddison January transfer as they notice Leicester star’s Instagram profile picture
NEWCASTLE fans are convinced James Maddison could land at St James’ Park after noticing the Leicester City ace’s change of Instagram profile picture.
The Magpies are long-time admirers of the 26-year-old.
Newcastle are keen on a move for James Maddison in the summerGetty
Two bids worth £40million and £45m were submitted last summer.
However, both offers were turned down and the player stayed put at the King Power.
Maddison has had a fine campaign, scoring seven goals and providing four assists, earning him a place in Gareth Southgate’s England World Cup squad.
And transfer expert Fabrizio Romano says the Toon are preparing to go back in for Maddison this summer when he moves into the final 12 months of his King Power contract.
The latest news has fans tracking Maddison’s social media activity, and it has convinced some that he will arrive at St James’ Park at some point in the next two windows.
Maddison has supposedly changed his Instagram profile picture from himself in a Leicester kit, to him modelling England’s home shirt.
One fan said: “Maddison has changed his profile pic from Vardy, their owner, Maddison and the FA Cup (in a Leicester kit) to him in an England kit…”
Another said: “Maddison is signing. You can feel it.”

Unfortunately for the playmaker, he was unable to play any minutes in Qatar due to injury.
