Fantasy Premier League 2018-19 Tips : 10 New Players To Sign

6. James Maddison (Leicester)

Time will tell, but Leicester might very well have made one of the signings of the season when they snatched up James Maddison from Norwich for a fee believed to be around £20m. Maddison was one of the most prolific midfielders in the Championship last season, scoring 14 goals and assisting eight more for his side, and should slot seamlessly into this Leicester team.

Leicester lost Riyad Mahrez to Man City earlier this summer and will be looking to Maddison to replace the Algerian in terms of goals and assists. Statistically speaking, he's certainly capable of doing just that. The Englishman made 124 chances in the Championship last season, which was the highest tally of any player in the division, and also ranked fourth in terms of shots attempted.

Always eager to make things happen for his teammates and have a blast from long range himself every now and then, Maddison could be a real coup in the fantasy game. He's priced at just £6.5m and has the talent to earn a lot of points.
