Southgate warns Maddison about casino incident during England's defeat

The Leicester City star was pictured in a casino during England's 2-1 defeat to the Czech Republic, after pulling out of the squad due to illness

England boss Gareth Southgate has sent a thinly-veiled warning to James Maddison after the Leicester City playmaker was pictured in a casino on Friday.

The Foxes midfielder, 22, had withdrawn from the Three Lions squad because of illness but made headlines after being seen in the venue during the Three Lions’ shock 2-1 defeat to the Czech Republic.

Southgate addressed the situation ahead of Monday’s trip to Bulgaria, where England will be looking to get their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign back on track.
