James Maddison ‘to never play for Tottenham again’ after crushing news
Tottenham Hotspur are nearing the end of a chaotic season, which could still end in them winning silverware under Ange Postecoglou.
The North London outfit have faltered in the Premier League but are favourites to reach the Europa League final after clinching a 3-1 win over Bodø/Glimt in the semi-final first leg.
Given how the season has unfolded, the London club looks set to make significant changes over the summer, with James Maddison’s future up in the air.
After the latest crushing news that has emerged around the midfielder, it appears he could have played his last game for Spurs already.
Maddison will miss chance to play in final
Maddison has enjoyed two years with Spurs, after signing from Leicester City for £40million in the summer of 2023.
His time at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has not come without struggle, with the 28-year-old missing substantial playing time through injury.
The England international would have been relishing the prospect of playing in a first major final with the North London outfit, but that dream has been shattered.
Maddison suffered a knee injury against West Ham on Sunday afternoon, and it is understood he will not play again this season, according to Alex Crook.
There is a fear that the former Norwich City man’s injury is significant, with scan results expected on Monday.
Maddison could depart Tottenham this summer
While Maddison has played an integral role at times during his Spurs career, his time at the club looks tenuous.
The Tottenham playmaker has Premier League admirers, and it is believed that a fee between £50-60million would be enough to lure him away from North London.
To add fuel to the fire, it has also been reported that the Tottenham playmaker has clashed with Postecoglou behind the scenes.
His form this season has been inconsistent, but he has still contributed in front of goal with 16 goal contributions in the Premier League.
| James Maddison’s 2024/25 Premier League statistics | Total |
| Appearances (starts) | 31 (21) |
| Goals | 9 |
| Assists | 7 |
| Accurate passes | 32.1 (87%) |
| Touches | 51.1 |
| Big chances created | 6 |
Although this season has not gone to plan, Maddison still has something to offer Spurs, and it would take big money for the club to part with him.
Much will depend on who will be in charge of the club next season, with Postecoglou’s future in serious jeopardy.
As things stand, Maddison looks to have played his last game of the season and could yet have played the last of his Tottenham tenure.
