Leicester City have set the price for James Maddison ahead of the January window as Newcastle are eyeing a move for the England international.
According to Football Insider, if the Magpies make a move for the midfielder during the winter transfer window, they will have to part with £60m for the transfer to go through.
Leicester have no intention of losing Maddison mid-season and feel his value has risen following his impressive form in the early part of the season.

Newcastle tried to sign Maddison over the summer, but Leicester turned down several offers.
The £60m fee would put the 26-year-old out of Newcastle’s reach next month, according to the report, as the Tyneside club must comply with financial fair play rules in January.
Maddison is out of contract with Leicester in the summer of 2024, putting his long-term future at the club in doubt.
