Leicester consider selling £50m-rated playmaker James Maddison to fund summer revamp of squad as boss Brendan Rodgers targets centre-back, midfielder and forward

Leicester City are considering whether to cash in on midfielder James Maddison this summer as they look to re-shape their squad.

Manager Brendan Rodgers wants three new additions for his side to take them to the next level after an indifferent campaign.

Leicester are willing to back Rodgers but the impact of covid on their finances means they will look to sell a number of players at the end of this campaign to boost their coffers and are giving serious consideration to allowing £50million-rated Maddison to leave.
