James Maddison thinks Tottenham will 'achieve big things' as 23-year-old is targeted to strengthen squad


Tottenham midfielder James Maddison says he enjoys working under Australian manager Ange Postecoglou and is certain that they will go from strength to strength next season.

He told Football.London: "Yeah he's quite popular isn't he? Ange is a good man. He's a great character. I love working for him and to see him in his country with the support he gets here was nice to see," he said.
"The first season of any new project is always challenging. It has its ups and downs. I'm really enjoying working for him, genuinely, and I think we can achieve big things hopefully. So the first year of many I hope."
"It's very tiring. It's obviously a long, long flight to be here. We were in the air for longer than we were actually here for. Jet lag was kicking in this morning in the early hours when I was staring at the ceiling, but the reaction we got and the warm welcome made the trip worth it.

Spurs linked to former Chelsea star
Tottenham have been linked to 23-year-old winger Callum Hudson-Odoi who joined Nottingham Forest from Chelsea last summer.
LondonWorld sources say Forest are not too keen on selling but might be forced to because of their financial situation. A fee in the region of £45million might be enough to tempt them with Spurs looking to strengthen their squad that will be playing in Europe next season.
