Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers has hailed the 'maturity' of captain James Maddison as the Foxes bid to escape the Premier League relegation battle.
Maddison will be a vital player for Leicester in what looks an incredibly close fight to avoid the drop, with the bottom nine teams currently separated by just four points.
And Rodgers believes that the 26-year-old, who made his first start for England in their Euro 2024 qualifying win over Ukraine at Wembley last weekend, is relishing his 'leadership' role at the club.
'I think he's matured on and off the pitch, particularly in the last few years,' said Rodgers, who dropped Maddison, Hamza Choudhury and Ayoze Perez from the squad for a game against West Ham in April 2021 for breaching Covid-19 protocols.
