Tottenham ace James Maddison says he doesn't actively seek to entertain fans.

Maddison has become an instant hit for Spurs since arriving in the summer from Leicester City.

"It's not a conscious effort to be a showman," he told The Independent, talking about his play style. "That's just how I play football.

"That's just how I am as a person. [When] I go for a roast dinner with my family, I like to be the main man."

On taking the No10 shirt, he added: "The club asked me, then of course I wanted to wear it.

"It's my favourite number. I've got it tattooed on me, I loved that number growing up as a kid so I was never going to say no."
