Newcastle United have made Leicester City star James Maddison their transfer priority.
The Magpies are keen to strengthen Eddie Howe's squad, but are aware of the issues involving Financial Fair Play.
With Newcastle looking to spend modestly in the coming windows, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claims they will still pursue Maddison.
The idea for Newcastle is to wait until the summer, when Maddison only has a year remaining on his contract.
The St. James' Park club believes that if Leicester know Maddison will now renew his deal, they will sell him for a modest fee.
However, other suitors are likely to emerge, with the likes of Tottenham credited with an interest in the past.
