Maddison full of regrets for failed season
Maddison reflecting on the season, said in an Instagram post:
“Absolutely devastated to be relegated from the Premier League. I’ve taken a bit of time to reflect on the outcome of the season and to be honest, it doesn’t make it any easier at all.
“This will hurt for a very long time and probably stick with us all forever. But that’s life & it’s about how you bounce back from setbacks & failure and unfortunately, that’s exactly what this season was.. a failure.
Maddison has just one year left on his Leicester City contract and Arsenal have been strongly linked, as well as Newcastle who also have Champions League football to offer.
