Newcastle will make a third bid for Leicester's James Maddison in January, according to reports.
The super-rich Premier League side made two offers for the playmaker this summer worth £40million and then £45m, the first of which Foxes manager Brendan Rodgers said 'might just cover three-quarters of his left leg'.
And as reported by the Times, Newcastle will return to pursuing Maddison if Leicester drop their asking price in the winter transfer window, when the 25-year-old will have just 18 months left on his contract.
The Magpies have spent a whopping £215million on new players since being taken over by PIF, the sovereign wealth fund of sportswashing nation Saudi Arabia - who have an extremely questionable record on human rights abuses.
