Rodgers unsure on Maddison new contract | 'A player you don't want to lose'
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers does not know how discussions over a new contract for James Maddison are going after admitting other clubs are likely to want to sign him.

Maddison has scored five goals and made two more in just seven games and put in an inspired display against Nottingham Forest on Monday.

The Foxes rejected two bids from Newcastle in the summer for the 25-year-old, whose contract expires at the end of next season.


Asked for an update on Maddison’s contract, Rodgers said: “I don’t know. You’re speaking to the wrong man. That’s for the club.

"My job is to coach him every day and make him the best he can be."

If Maddison does make it to the World Cup with England, it is likely to put him in the shop window for interested clubs in January.

“I would think (there would be interest)," the Northern Irishman admitted.

"It's only natural you want your absolute best players to be here, and we keep saying that, but we keep losing them.

"He's never a player you would want to lose. But I can only focus on him now and day by day.


"The beauty of James, and it's the same with this England scenario, it hasn't affected him. That's where you see the level of maturity.

"What we've seen in the past is, sadly, players are linked with all sorts of clubs because an agent has to create a market, and then when it doesn't come off, you see the player then go down.

"It's never been like that, and James has been linked with loads. But he's also a realist. He also knows he's in a good place to develop and learn, and he knows he can focus on day-to-day life and improve. What will be in the future will be, but it will only be on the back of playing well."

Bosz sacked as Lyon boss after Lacazette criticism
Peter Bosz has been sacked as Lyon manager and Claudio Cacapa will take interim charge of the Ligue 1 club, according to French outlet RMC.

The Dutch manager’s fate was decided during a meeting with the club’s management yesterday afternoon.

He had been under pressure in the past weeks as a result of Lyon’s poor run of form, with the club winless in their last five games and only picking up one point during that time.

Friday night’s 1-1 draw against Toulouse sealed Bosz's fate, with fractures between him and his captain, Alexandre Lacazette, appearing.

Speaking to Prime Video post-match, Lacazette criticised Bosz’s decision to take off strike partner Moussa Dembele, while also stating that he believed that not all players understood his instructions.

He was also seemingly ambivalent about Bosz’s future as Lyon boss.
