The James Maddison Arsenal transfer talks have taken a positive step forward as Leicester City have given a strong indication that they’d be willing to negotiate a £60million deal.
The England international has been a key player for the Foxes down the years, but it now looks like he could be on his way out of the King Power Stadium for the right price.
According to the reliable AFC Bell, Arsenal have made a key step forward by appointing Darren Robinson to act as an intermediary over this deal, with some promising talks held.
Robinson is said to have learned that Leicester are open to discussing Maddison’s sale for around £60m, which could be affordable for Arsenal.

Maddison seems ideal for Arsenal as they look for a long-term replacement for Mesut Ozil.
Other big names like Martin Odegaard and Houssem Aouar have also been linked with Mikel Arteta’s side, but it seems things are progressing with regards to Maddison.
The 24-year-old would not come cheap, but AFC fans would surely see that kind of move as a major statement that is badly needed at the Emirates Stadium.
We need him urgently
I am seriously disappointed by Arsenal’s lack of seriousness in their pursuit of Housem Aouer, I thought that in the last transfer window he was priced out of reach, but now that his valuation has been slashed by half, suddenly Arsenal is looking at other targets who cost much higher than our number one transfer target for the last season, and totally ignoring Aouer, very disappointing trend by a club we expect to improve
Wont matter with Arteta as coach.
Turned golden boot to a warned out shoe!
Look what happened to Chelsea’s same squad by changing coach!
Pre-season Always been important in order to start Season on right foot & spirit. Amazing to finish 8th with no Europe for a quarter century, but keep this clown, spend money as ever past 2 seasons but breaking Infamous records …
Man has no clue at all, guessing with a top squad instead to learn in midtable team, made us one.
Simple as that but even with such awfull pre-season, will not replaced.
It is alreasy late, a coach should be there for pré Season !
Arsenal should make sure and bring madison
We need martin odegaart and james maddison in emirate artate.
