Tottenham Hotspur are preparing a summer swoop for Norwich star James Maddison, according to the Mirror. 

The newspaper report that Liverpool also hold an interest in the 21-year-old attacking midfielder, who has lit up the Championship with six goals and five assists in 24  appearances so far this term.

The Mirror claim that Maddison is set to stay at the Canaries for the rest of the season, as Norwich cash in on former Spurs player Alex Pritchard, who is on the verge of a move to Huddersfield.

Southampton and Wolves are also interested in the pass master.

Good move for Tottenham Hotspur?

This would be an exciting move for Spurs.

Maddison has blossomed into a terrific young player since his move from Coventry two years ago.

He has been one of the Canaries best players this season as they struggle to climb the table and secure an unlikely play-off spot.

Mauricio Pochettino would be able to develop Maddison even further at Spurs, for whom he could become a brilliant acquisition.

Likely to happen?

As reported, there will be a lot of competition for Maddison’s signature.

Liverpool are keen, as are several other big sides.

It will depend on how high Spurs are willing to go with their offer, and obviously whether they are still interested by then.
