The 21-year-old attacking midfielder has been in sensational form for the Canaries this season. In 49 games, the youngster directly contributed in 26 goals (15 goals and 11 assists) before suffering a knee injury in the game against Sheffield Wednesday last Saturday.

The Sun have claimed that initially it was thought that Maddison is out for 6 months but now, it is suggested that he could recover sooner and therefore, PL clubs like Arsenal, Man City, Spurs, Everton, Brighton and Southampton are looking to sign him in the upcoming summer transfer window.
