TalkSPORT pundit Darren Bent has urged Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur to make a bid for Leicester City duo Harvey Barnes and James Maddison.
The former Tottenham Hotspur striker has said on talkSPORT that Spurs should offer £80 million for Leicester City attackers Harvey Barnes and James Maddison.
The talkSPORT pundit has noted that 25-year-old winger Barnes and 26-year-old attacking midfielder Maddison are very good players.
Bent believes that a bid of £80 million for the two Leicester players could see Tottenham be able to bring him to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Leicester will play in the Championship next season after getting relegated from the Premier League.
Both Maddison and Barnes have been linked with Tottenham in the summer transfer window.
The Guardian have claimed that Tottenham are keen on securing the services of Maddison in the summer of 2023.
The Daily Mail have reported that Spurs are among the clubs who want Barnes.
Maddison scored 10 goals and gave nine assists in 28 Premier League starts for the Foxes last season.
Barnes scored 13 goals and provided one assist in 32 Premier League starts for Leicester last season.

Bent said: “I think him (Barnes) and Maddison should be in the Premier League. Someone could be quite clever there. If they bid enough money, they might get them as a package deal.
“If you are Tottenham, you are looking at Harvey Barnes and James Maddison, I would put a big lump of cash. If they were to put on the table £80 million, for them two players, they are two very good players.”
