Dele Alli seems to love Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur’s decision to sign James Maddison from Leicester City.

Tottenham Hotspur have announced the signing of James Maddison from Leicester City in the summer transfer window.

According to The Telegraph, Tottenham have paid Leicester an initial transfer fee of £40 million for the England international attacking midfielder.

The 26-year-old playmaker will get paid £170,000 per week as salary at Tottenham, according to the report.

Maddison is one of the best attacking players around and is likely to go straight into the Tottenham starting lineup under new head coach Ange Postecoglou.

The 26-year-old scored 10 goals and gave nine assists in 28 Premier League starts for Leicester last season.

Maddison has taken to Instagram to express his delight at making the move to Tottenham from Leicester, who will play in the Premier League next season after getting relegated from the Championship.
