Tottenham Hotspur

coach Christian Stellini praised Leicester City’s James Madison.

Tottenham had a busy winter transfer window. Right wingback Pedro Poro was recruited, and striker Arnaut Danjuma was also recruited. In particular, the right wingback position was a reasonable arrangement because Matt Doherty was sent away due to contract termination, and Jed Spence was also loaned to Stadren.

However, the recruitment of the midfielder left some regrets. Tottenham are struggling with midfield. In midfield, they have a starting line-up of Pierre-Emile Hoivier and Rodrigo Bentancur, but they lack backups. Currently, except for these two, there are Eve Bisuma, Oliver Skip, and Pape Sar, but all three players cannot guarantee their performance.

In particular, Bisuma and Sar were even injured. Tottenham announced on the 10th (Korean time) that Bisuma would have to undergo surgery for a stress fracture, and Sarr suffered a hip injury. If this happens, there is no clear 1st team other than Hoibier and Bentancur in the midfield.

Physical strength is also a problem due to the lack of players in the midfield, but the bigger problem is the lack of creativity. Tottenham have lacked an attacking midfielder since the departure of Christian Eriksen. In particular, there was a lack of players who could insert creative passes, so they showed an attack pattern that relied only on Harry Kane and Son Heung-min at the forefront.

Because of this concern, Tottenham is aiming to recruit an attacking midfielder. The target is Leicester’s James Madison. Born in England in 1996, Madison made his professional debut for Coventry City in 2013. Madison, who later moved to Leicester City in 2018 via Norwich City, has established himself as a key midfielder for the team.

His sharp kicks, playmaking and stat production are his greatest strengths. Madison has often scored incredible mid-range goals against strong teams at Leicester, and is a dedicated kicker from set pieces, and is always considered a threatening midfielder for other teams. He has been a key player this season as well, scoring 8 goals and 4 assists in 15 games in the league. 카지노

Stellini, Tottenham coach and current acting manager, has also openly praised Madison. Speaking to the British media’The Athletic’, coach Stellini said, “We like Madison as a player. He is an important player in the league, and he plays an important role in technique, crossing and shooting. He is also good at crossing and set pieces.” .

He is a target for Tottenham, but he is also an opponent. Tottenham will face off in the 23rd round of the English Premier League (EPL) in the 2022-23 season, which will be held at King Power Stadium in Leicester, England at 0:00 am (Korean time) on the 12th. Acting manager Stellini tries to turn the ‘enemy’ into a ‘colleague’.
