Maddison cools England talk

The classy playmaker has impressed for the 'Foxes' since joining from Norwich in the summer, starting all four of his new side's Premier League games to date.

His early-season form had seen him linked with a shock England call-up but he was made to settle for a place in Aidy Boothroyd's U21 squad.

Now, Maddison himself has admitted that it is far too early to be talking about featuring for the full 'Three Lions' side.

"I don't want to get too far ahead of myself, I've only played four games in the Premier League," he said.

"It is a dream of mine to play for England, it always has been since I was a very young boy.

"Gareth has obviously done a brilliant job. We've got such a young squad with so much talent, it's a good time to be an England player.

"Hopefully I can keep impressing with my club and the U21s and we'll see where it goes.

"I've gone kind of a different route to a lot of lads in the England set-up.

"I started in League One and went up into the Championship and then into the Premier League, so I've played a lot of games from quite a young age.

"The Premier League is the toughest league in the world so it's never going to be easy to get minutes.

"I feel like I'm in good form, I've started the season relatively well - I've started all four games. Long may that continue."
